Caramel Mocha Almond Ice Cream

Caramel Mocha Almond Ice Cream Recipe

Requires an ice cream maker but no cooking and no eggs. This is an overhaul of a recipe that was in the booklet for my ice cream maker. The original recipe was for coffee walnut ice cream & used all half and half and whipping cream. Being short on the creams, I substituted my coffee creamer. I didn't have walnuts but I did have toasted almonds. And since I was tinkering, I added the chocolate syrup. When I tasted it half frozen, I thought the coffee was too intense so I dolloped in the Cool Whip. The result was outstanding; smooth texture, chocolately, coffee flavor and a crunch of almonds.
