Chocolate Strawberry Soft Serve

July 2, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 15 Comments

Hi Everyone,

It’s still hot here and I mean hot.  Cooking has been the pits!  It’s been steamed veggies in the microwave, cold salads and quick grilling, because you know there is no way I want to stand near a hot grill when it’s 104 degrees out.  It’s been crazy and I know a lot of you are going through the same thing.  Well today I have an all natural, sweet, chocolaty treat for you!!!  I needed me something cold and refreshing to cool me down and you probably do to!

Chocolate Strawberry Soft Serve

This is my Chocolate Strawberry Soft Serve Ice Cream.  This baby is gooooooooooood!!  It is naturally sweet, cold, easy to make and completely guilt-free, not to mention it makes a lot!!!  I kind of have tiny tendency to over buy strawberries, so just before they go bad or start to over ripe I clean them up, core them and slice them and pop them in my freezer.   When I was reaching for the vanilla ice cream, I saw these little red gems in the freezer and thought, I haven’t had strawberry soft serve in a long time.  But how can I zip it up, then I thought, ohhh, chocolate and strawberries.  Chocolate and strawberries is such a wonderful, yummy combo and in ice cream, mmm, mmm even better!!  I bought some unsweetened cocoa powder from Whole Foods, which I love, but the only thing is that the chocolate has a red tone to it.  Not sure why, but it tastes fabulous!!  Check out the bulk department next time your at Whole Foods for the cocoa powder, it’s pretty cheap too!!  That’s why the ice cream has a funny red tone to it, it’s not the strawberries, but the cocoa powder.

Chocolate Strawberry Soft Serve


When I was in the ice cream isle on Sunday and I bought the vanilla ice cream for the milkshake I made yesterday and  I spotted sugar cones.  I LOVE sugar cones!  I never buy them because I was afraid the calories would be through the roof, but I was surprised when I found Joy Sugar Cones for 50 calories a cone! Yah!!!  So my Husband and I have been having ice cream cones for dessert all week.  This is really a treat for us because this is something we never have.  Oh and for you Guys who are Gluten-Free, they also make Gluten Free cones!   So I started to make a Chocolate Strawberry Ice Cream Cone, but realized that the soft serve will melt before I can take all of the pictures and besides I made a lot of ice cream and the cone isn’t big enough to hold it all.  But here is a quick pic of it in a cone.  I did eat the cone separately and I loved every bite of it!  For a fun treat, I do recommend getting some sugar cones, they are only 3 grams of sugar and 12 carbs!  Not bad at all!!

Chocolate Strawberry Soft Serve

I love such simple, all natural recipes like this!!  It’s wonderful that Mother Nature provides us with such yummy goodies like strawberries and chocolate that won’t hurt your waistline!    Even though the sugar cones are not natural, I am happy for them,because having them made me feel like a kid again!

I promise tomorrow won’t be a frozen treat, but a recipe I love!!

Have a super Tuesday!  Hope you stay nice and cool!!

Toodles,

Jennifer

    Such a perfect hot weather treat, Jen! Totally delish! We’ve hit monsoon season here in Indiana (who knew???), but I’m sure it will heat up again soon.

Happy Wednesday! I don’t know about you, but we Happy Wednesday! I don’t know about you, but we never eat our meals at the dining room table. We always eat at the kitchen counter. It’s convenient, easy to clean and it’s close to the food. Plus as a bonus, we get a nice view of the backyard.
💕
Just because you eat at the counter doesn’t mean you can’t create a pretty place setting. I like creating a place setting for my husband and I. It makes for a lovely meal and feels a little fancier.
💕
I was gifted this gorgeous flatware from @inoxartisans. This is the Chantilly Flatware 5 piece set. It’s handcrafted with 18/8 stainless steel. It has a nice weight to it, well made and it’s comfortable in your hand. The flatware is also dishwasher safe. 
💕
You can dress up the Chantilly Flatware with an elegant meal or use it for a more casual meal. If you are looking for new flatware INOX Artisans has a wide variety of styles that comes in gold, copper and silver.
💕
Do you eat at the dining room table or do you prefer the kitchen counter?

Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterd Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterday taking pictures of flowers and I felt a shadow flying around me. I looked up and there a Monarch butterfly. 
🦋
I don’t see Monarchs very much, I was delighted when I saw this orange beauty flying around. It landed on a Zinnia before it took a rest on my Butterfly Bush. Isn’t it beautiful? It made my day. It’s the small things.
🦋
I highly recommend a Butterfly Bush in your garden. The flowers come in a range of colors from white, pink to purples. They do well in zones 5-9. The flowers smell amazing and bloom all season. They are also a great butterfly attractor and fairly easy to grow.
🦋
Do you get butterflies in your garden?

I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room. 
🌸
I love sitting around the table with friends and family and tell stories, laugh, play games and have a good time. I thought the side of the sign that says “Enjoy Every Moment” was perfect.

Happy Thursday! Last week I cleaned my bedroom and Happy Thursday! Last week I cleaned my bedroom and boy does it feel so nice to have a clean room.
💕
One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors. 
💕
I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

I updated my little corner by adding some pops of yellow. I just love adding yellow and I love adding lemons. Speaking of lemons, how cute is my little “Hello Sunshine” pillow is from @krumpetshomedecor.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which is okay by me. Yesterday I worked on my bedroom and it feels so good having a clean bedroom. It was a chore that I needed to get done.

My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.

The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals.

I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

🌸
I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.
🌸
Do you have any summer vacation scheduled this year?
