Cinnamon Cheesecake Ice Cream {Cherry Pie Filling Allowed!}

‘Cheesecake and Cinnamon’ is such a lovely combination together.  Can I tell you, when I decided to make cheesecake ice cream, the idea to add the cinnamon in, came when was making these delicious Rustic Cherry Crescent Pies.  Glad I did!  Together it tasted like refried ice cream, and it was OBNOXIOUS!!  (As if cheesecake and cinnamon wasn’t heaven enough?!)

I had cherry pie filling left over from making the Rustic Cherry Crescent Pies, so I scooped up some creamy Cinnamon Cheesecake Ice Cream and dropped spoonfuls of tart Cherry Pie Filling ‘love’ on top and just stared in wonderment, licking my lips as it pulled me in with it’s super powers.  *Drool.*

And then I did one more OBNOXIOUS thing (imagine that?) after I snapped out of my wonderment stage, and started polishing off the cheesecake and cherry combination slowly, savoring every last bite.  

However, it did not end there!  

I did the ABSURD this time!  I added the cherry filling to the rest of my Cinnamon Cherry Cheesecake Ice Cream and swirled it together.  Clouds of ice cream creaminess swaddled with luscious cherries, looking all dreamy and so tempting.  I thought I was done, but NOOOOoooOO!  A couple more spoonfuls, slowly savoring some more ABSURDNESS.  *Drool.* 

 I’m not even going to apologize.  This is pure happiness!
