Butter Brickle ice cream is my favorite flavor.....why ice cream companies do not continue to make it is beyond me. This recipe is good....not the exact ice cream of my childhood but close. I remember it being more buttery and less brown sugar tasting...I may play with the ratio's in the future. I could not find Bits-O-Brittle so I put a bunch of Werthers Candy in a plastic bag and broke them up with a rolling pin. It worked!! Will make again! -
Made for my daughter, her favorite. Easy, wonderful. Will make again and again.<br/>:] Thanks. -
Butter Brickle is my husband's favorite ice cream. He was heart broken when it was taken off the market. We had an ice cream social at church last night and I wanted something unusual from all of the other recipes. I found this recipe and it recieved rave reviews from all. The only complaint was there was ONLY one gallon. My husband swears it is the best homemade ice cream he has ever tasted. Thanks again for a wonderful recipe and my new "standard" for ice cream socials. -
Delicious! I followed the recipe to the letter and it turned out wonderful. -
This ice cream turned out very good. I followed the recipe exactly. Next time I will add more toffee pieces, just a personal preference. Thanks

First, whipping cream = heavy cream. This is not Cool Whip or canned whipped cream topping. Since Hersey has the rights to butter brickle, I would suggest you buy their toffee bits for the toffee pieces. Even better is homemade toffee broken down to bit sizes. Toffee is easy to make and has so many uses, especially during the holiday season. This ice cream is a must try recipe that you will not regret.

I've been hanging around Zaar for a while, now and have found some really awesome recipes, but more importantly, some really awesome people.
I'd like to thank all of you who have taken the time to try my recipes. Your reviews are a bright spot in my day.
I believe that life is a collection of lessons that we must do our best to learn. One that I'm working on now is not judging those who judge others. I've come across this quote and thought I'd put it here: "The world is long on judgment and short on understanding. Judging is easy and self-satisfying. Understanding requires perspective, experience, and empathy."-Unknown
