This sounds delicious. However, I could not get past the high fat & calorie content. I used the basic idea of this recipe for ingredients, but made frozen yogurt rather than ice cream. My variation: 4 cups whole milk Greek yogurt 3/4 cup white sugar 2 cups candied walnuts (I did not have black walnuts) 1 tablespoon vanilla 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon salt. I mixed all together, poured into bowl of ice cream maker to freeze. DELICIOUS. Definitely sweet enough, and rich enough for our taste. I will probably try making it with low fat or nonfat yogurt next time.

I loved this ice cream! I am not a fan of homemade ice cream, but this is delicious. The cinnamon and black walnuts really compliment each other. This recipe is quick and easy. I highly recommend this ice cream!

I thought the amount of nuts was a little too much, but otherwise it was a really delicious ice cream!

This is very good. We added a splash of cinnamon extract to add a little more flavor. I'm making it again this week!

I got the summer craving for homemade ice cream last week so I pulled out my 6qt. and this recipe. I made it for dessert at my restaurant as a special and it was a hit. The cinnamon is subtle I might double it the next time, but a great creamy combination for a no-cook recipe. It's not an inexpensive batch though, as Black Walnuts cost more, but well worth it.

This was super easy and very very good. Everyone loved it! I couldn't find black walnuts, so I used regular walnuts. Don't know how it would taste if the ice cream was put in the freezer, ours never got that far, we ate it all up as soon as the ice cream maker was done :-) I am not a nut person, but this was really good. I highly recommend that you give it a try!! Thank you CookinginFL for the recipe!!!!
