Peach Ice Cream
Allow me to dish you up a scoop of summer.
A dish of sweet summer peaches.
It doesn’t get any better than this.
Yes, I’m still on my ice cream kick. I’m loving my new Kitchen Aide ice cream maker. I just can’t stop making ice cream!
This recipe is one of my favorites.
Start with 4 cups of fresh, juicy peaches. Cut them up.
Puree them lightly in a food processor. I like chunks of fruit in my ice cream so I don’t over do it.
Mix with half and half, evaporated milk, condensed milk, sugar and pudding. I do add a small shot of vanilla vodka. The alcohol prevents the ice cream from freezing too hard in the freezer.
Process in your ice cream maker….
Voila! So scrumptious. Here – have a dish!
