No-Churn! I love that word. Not because I am lazy. I can churn like a machine, even by hand. But because it means the recipe is more accessible, might get done quickly and I might get away without bringing my ice cream maker out from the depths of the spare closet exploding with a million props and appliances. Okay, I might be a tad lazy. So, back to this fabulous no-churn ice cream. This is essentially a 4-ingredient no-brainer …
My mind is drawing a blank as I prep this post. All I can think of is the postman. Sigh! One would think I had developed irrational and out-of-character feelings for this human figure shrouded in a flappy fluorescent shirt and flappy navy pants with all of his face and head covered by a helmet and googly sunglasses.

This planet is a very special place. For a number of reasons. One of them is chocolate. And the other is egg. They both make men weak and women swoon, especially if they are molten and runny. How many brown and yellow things can boast of that? We can’t always buy a hug, but we sure can buy a little bit of chocolate or fry an egg. I thought hard and long about what ingredient was …
