Cookies 'n Cream Ice Cream

Back in the days when I could pick any flavor of ice cream in the freezer section I rarely picked cookies 'n cream, but for some reason I had a craving for it. Maybe it was a subconscious thing since it's Mike's favorite and it's his birthday today, but I saw a recipe in my Blendtec cookbook and decided to go for it. I bought some Glutino Zebra Dream cookies for $4.99 and dropped them in the blender. In the end it turned out to be rather expensive, since I could have bought some Purely Decadent, but then the end result was double the quantity, so it's a give and take thing. Anyhow, it turned out great! It's fairly sweet but then I like things that way, which may explain why I've been to the dentist alot lately. LOL. Anyhow, here's the recipe:

Cookies 'n Cream Ice Cream

3/4 cup nondairy creamer
3/4 cup sugar
8 chocolate sandwich cookies (for those of you who aren't gluten free use oreos)
2 1/2 cups ice cubes

I only put 6 cookies in to start, and blended everything together. Then I dropped in the remaining two cookies and used the pulse button to just break up the cookies into smaller bits. Pour it in some Tupperware and pop it in the freezer.
