Happy Saturday, folks! Do you have anything fun planned for the weekend? I do! My birthday’s tomorrow, so I have a long day of good company and good food ahead of me, but before I run off to do that, let’s have a little chat about some ice cream first.
I had a couple different names for this recipe. In my editorial calendar, it’s written in as It’s My Birthday, B*tch Ice Cream because when I was coming up with something fun and decadent to post around my birthday, I immediately knew this was the over-the-top flavor combo I wanted work with.

When I shared the ice cream with other people, I called it Parent Trap Ice Cream since for a lot of us 90’s kids, that’s where we first learned about the delights of combining peanut butter and Oreos.
But, in the end, SEO won out, so the official title’s No-churn Peanut Butter Oreo Ice Cream.
And sure, the title may be a little boring, but this ice cream is definitely not.
The vanilla ice cream base is your standard super-easy no-churn ice cream combo of one can sweetened condensed milk and 2 cups heavy whipping cream, whipped with vanilla. It’s a fabulous rich and sweet base that pretty much begs you to add something fun to it. For this Peanut Butter Oreo Ice Cream, I chopped up some Oreos, added a handful (okay, like three handfuls, let’s be real here) of mini Reeses Peanut Butter Cups, and then I swirled some melted peanut butter into the ice cream.
Six ingredients, about eight minutes to throw everything together, and then you just cover your creation, pop it in the freezer, and wait four to six agonizing hours until it’s ready to go.
And it’s worth every single second of the wait. This ice cream is a frozen summer dream come true. It’s creamy and perfect, with ribbons of peanut butter running through it and big chunks of Oreo and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups alongside.
If you’ve felt like your summer’s a been a little lacking in delight this year, take two scoops of this and call me in the morning to tell me how much better your summer is now. 😉
