- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions:

- When the ice cream has reached that perfect, swirly, soft-serve consistency, treat it like a naughty child and send it for an icy timeout in an airtight container. Make sure it’s locked up tight in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or until it has transformed into a solid, frozen delight.
Easy Flavor Suggestions:
- Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough: Fold in chunks of homemade cookie dough during the last few minutes of churning for a delightful surprise in every bite.
- Mint Chocolate Chip: Add a few drops of mint extract and fold in mini chocolate chips for a refreshing and classic combination.
- Strawberry Cheesecake: Swirl in a homemade strawberry sauce and chunks of cream cheese for a creamy and fruity delight.
- Cookies and Cream: Crush some chocolate sandwich cookies and fold them into the ice cream during the last few minutes of churning for a cookies-and-cream sensation.
- Salted Caramel Pretzel: Drizzle in some salted caramel sauce and mix in crushed pretzels to achieve the perfect sweet and salty balance.

Mix a Little Luck into Your Big Game Menu

Mix a Little Luck into Your Big Game Menu
(Family Features) Picture this: Your team is down three points, but the taste of victory is just one field goal away. Sometimes, all you need is a little luck and a whole lot of guac. After all, an estimated 250 million pounds of avocados are consumed during the Big Game each year, according to Hass Avocado Board Volume Data. That’s enough to fill 30 million football helmets with guac – but filling your belly instead is a win-win for good luck and great flavor. Dip into good fortune this football season with help from Avocado From Mexico’s Guac Guru, Rob Riggle, whose visionary Good Luck Guac recipe is ready to share just in time for the Big Game. Whether you’re in it for the football, the commercials or the snacks, this recipe can score major points with your entire crew.
Crafted for fans of every team, this bold, golden twist on a favorite football snack is infused with ingredients associated with good luck – edible gold flakes and pomegranate seeds – to get you through the most nail-biting moments of the game. The star ingredient is fresh, high-quality Avocados From Mexico that offer good taste, good nutrition, and good times. Beyond delicious dips, chips and lots of fun, hosting a watch party can also be a lot of work. Make sure your hosting duties don’t create interference or put you on the sidelines with these tips: Get a jumpstart on party prep. The day before the game, tidy up your space and prepare as much of the food as you can. For dishes best served fresh – like guac – take care of the ingredient prep, like chopping veggies. Create comfortable seating and viewing areas. For a watch party, you’ll want plenty of room for guests to sit comfortably where they can see the screen and have easy access to the guac. If there’s not enough space in the living room to fit everyone, consider bringing a TV to the kitchen so people can snack and watch at the same time. Know your guests. From non-alcoholic beverage options to additional entertainment like board games and kid-friendly activities, become a next-level party host by providing a setup tailored to your guests’ needs. One thing almost everyonecan agree on: Guac made with Avocados From Mexico can be the star of nearly any party’s snacking lineup. Make it your team’s lucky day with more game day recipes at AvocadosFromMexico.com/recipe.
