This was great! I made it a couple of times as a post-workout treat and then one day everyone else in the house was planning on ice cream for dessert so I threw it in my ice cream maker - it turned out more like ice milk than ice cream (more chrystals) phenomenal!!! Thanks so much for this recipe!!! - 2/17/14
