Enough trips into the coffee shop and it occurred to me that cinnamon and nutmeg might be good for something other than topping drinks and baking. So I tried some on vanilla ice cream....amazing....
Putting toppings on the ice cream gives you a range of flavor you don't get from flavoring in the ice cream. With nutmeg one bite tastes like vanilla, the next one like eggnog. Very intense flavor too. And a lot less calories than hot fudge or caramel.
Anyone else tried this? I've been thinking about using ginger, or maybe dried lemon juice. I draw the line at Frank's Red Hot Sauce.....
