Abracadabra!

Gather 'round folks, Mallory's got a magic trick to share.  Watch as she takes just two everyday household items and magically transforms them into delicious, homemade bread (without a lovely assistant, by the way)!

In all seriousness, this is absolutely the simplest recipe ever to exist. It would probably fool even the savviest of breadmakers, and the ingredients are a bit of a shocker. Are you sitting down? To bake this very special homemade bread you'll need 1 c. self-rising flour, 1 pint of ice cream and...that's it. Allow me to walk you through the process.

UPDATE: I realized I didn't credit my very creative Aunt Beth for sharing this recipe! Thanks, Beth, for always having something new and fun at the holidays!


Like I said, 1 pint of ice cream and 1 cup self-rising flour. I chose Starbucks' Caramel Macchiato ice cream to give mine a slight coffee flavor. However I've had it made from butter pecan as well and the pecans added a nice crunch.




Soften the ice cream in the microwave. It takes less then a minute. 




Combine the "wet ingredients" (the melted ice cream) with the cup of self-rising flour.




Pour the mixture into a loaf pan and slide it into the oven. 




It only takes about 35 minutes in a 350 degree oven. You'll want to keep en eye on it though since ovens can vary a little. 




Give it a few minutes to rest and cool off, then put it on a pretty plate for serving! I really hope everyone gets a chance to try this. You have to see it yourself to believe it!
