a tutorial: ice cream clouds!

  






 
 hi there,
happy monday.


i'm just popping in to say a quick hello,
and to share a recipe download 
for what i think
is just about a perfect 
midday summertime snack!


illustrated by the lovely melinda josie
and from us to you
ice cream clouds!
click on the recipe below to download









hope your week is swell.
xo, n.






ps: 
if you like add a pinch of salt to the recipe, 
i forgot that bit!

pps: 
i'm in the september issue of food & wine magazine!
find it on newsstands now or online here.
i teamed up with my friends and super talented folks
john cullen and martine blackhurst for this one, such fun.

ppps:
if you don't have a cloud cutter any shape will do
but if you'd like one, you can find them here
