Was very easy to make and everyone enjoyed the smooth taste of the homemade ice cream. It is a wonderful indulgence food to have on hand.

I have not made this yet but I am going to get an ice cream maker now! This sounds wonderful and my sensei, a totally fit, into good nutrition, 7th degree blackbelt told me a life and a diet without indulgences leads more people astray than the occasional wonderful rich indulgence, in food or any other aspect of life, so I will use this to keep me on the path to fit.

Ice cream sounds delicious, but my maker is only 1 1/2 quarts. Anyone successfully halve this recipe? donna.wirth--this is a review section, not an opinion section.

Although this recipe looks very delicious, i would not make this recipe simply for the fact that there are over 400 calories for only 1/2 cup of icecream and over 30 grams of fat. I could not serve this to my family. i know there are healthier alternatives out there when wanting to serve your family a nice summer desert.

I cut out this recipe years ago from the magazine and finally just got the chance to try it. Well worth the wait. The flavor was awesome and the whole family loved it! Really delicious!

I have been making this recipe for a few years, so I thought it was time to give credit to the cook. This is an awesome recipe, very easy to make. It's one that I get so many compliments on when I take it to share with others. I pretty much make it as is, except I only make a 1/2 batch of the graham cracker layer as that's a personal preference. I also put away a small container of just the vanilla ice cream part so our son can have his chocolate syrup on it. Overall this is a wonderful summer treat! I've only made it with fresh blueberries. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe.

This is the best home made ice cream I've ever had. It's very smooth and creamy.

This ice cream rocks!! It has fabulous cheesecake flavor, and the graham and blueberry just gives the perfect accent! Another thing I really love is that the texture is very creamy, not icy like some recipes are! Definitely give this a try!!

Not a big fan of blueberries, but this is THE best ice cream I've made! I'm thinking next time of doubling the recipe and doing half with strawberries. Definitely a keeper!
