If you're going to have just one dessert this Thanksgiving season, then make it this Bourbon and Pumpkin Ginger Spice ice cream. This is the best ice cream I've ever had, hands down!
Now I might be a little bias since I created this recipe, but my taste buds have not failed me yet! This ice cream is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!
I know you must be thinking, "Ice cream? She must be crazy, it's freezing outside with this arctic chill!" Yes, I do agree it's chilly outside and no, I'm not crazy. This ice cream is just that good, no matter what the weather is outside.
Not only is it soft and creamy right out of the freezer, but it also encompasses the flavors of Thanksgiving with pumpkin, spices, and a little taste of bourbon. Yes, bourbon. Southern Comfort to be exact, which brings an exquisite flavoring to this ice cream.
After all, who doesn't need a little bourbon during the Holidays with the family?
I find myself drooling just telling y'all about it! The photos really don't do this ice cream any justice. You just have to make it yourself and see what I'm talking about.
Which reminds me of another great thing about this ice cream, it only takes about ten minutes to make and you don't need an ice cream churn! Does it get any better than that?
You're welcome {smile}.

Gingersnap cookies for topping and serving
Directions
In a large bowl, add whipping cream, sweetened condensed milk, pumpkin, and Southern Comfort.
Whip until soft peaks start to form in mix. Soft peaks should resemble fluffy little pillows.
Add in 1 Tablespoon brown sugar and whip again for about 30 seconds, until brown sugar is mixed throughout.
By hand, gently fold in remaining 2 Tablespoons of brown sugar and crushed ginger snaps until blended.
Pour into a freezer safe dish and sprinkle crumbs from 1 gingersnap cookie over the top.
Cover and freeze overnight.
