Black Raspberry Ice Cream with Oreos

Get ready for this combo guys…the creamiest Black Raspberry Ice Cream, swirled with tons of delicious chocolatey Oreos! It is the perfect homemade ice cream for summer!

Eric and I are obsessed with this ice cream shop in Sacramento called Gunther’s. (If you’re ever in the area you HAVE to stop by. They’ve been open for 70 years!) We will take any excuse to go, especially if we have friends visiting from out of town.

Every month they have a special flavor. It’s always something creative and new, but not in a gross way. No asparagus ice cream or corn ice cream or weirdo-flavors here folks. (Although I actually would love to try corn ice cream someday!)

Only flavor combos that make your knees go weak will do, like Cinna-Man (Cinnamon ice cream with Gingerbread Swirl, my personal favorite that you will see a replica of on the blog someday) or Caramel Crackle Crunch, or Blueberry Cheesecake, or Strawberry Nutella, or Horchata. See what I mean? These guys know what they’re doing.

We had some friends from out of town come to visit, so naturally we headed to Gunther’s, and noticed that the flavor of the month was Black Raspberry Ice Cream with Oreos. I was a little suspicious since fruity ice cream is not usually my favorite, and ordered my usual Mint Oreo (with fudge on top).

But Eric ordered a cone. We sat down to eat after having waited in the long line that goes out the door, and as soon as we tasted it, we looked at each other and said “this is not enough.” So Eric stood up and got immediately back in the long line and ordered an entire half gallon of the stuff. I ate it with a spoon all the way home, yes, even though I had just finished my other scoop. I was OBSESSED.
