Favorites: Desserts

 Here are five of our favorite dessert recipes.

1. Vanilla Ice Cream:  A Hinton family tradition from when Ken was a child is to make homemade vanilla ice cream.  This is an old family recipe and honestly, you just can't beat it.  We made it while our kids were growing up in an old-fashioned ice and salt ice cream maker.  We now use an electric cold-core kind, but it just holds half of the recipe.  We store the other half in the fridge and make it again a few days later.  It is the best!

2. The Next Best Thing to Robert Redford:  The name of this dessert dates it.  That's how long we have been making it.  We make it in many different flavors.  I made it a lot when on our mission in Japan for special occasions.  Michelle made it for a dessert competition when she was in college and  won 1st place.  As you can see, it is rich in tradition and taste.
