The Homemade Ice Cream Thread
Summer is coming and with it homemade ice cream season. Please post recipes here!
This is a recipe I have used with great success. It is easy and involves no cooking:
Basic Ice Cream with Fresh Fruit
2 cups half and half
1 cup cream
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 tsp vanillla
mix all and chill well
freeze according to maker instructions
Fruit addition options:
Add 2 ripe bananas, smashed, or 1 cup smashed strawberries with 1 tsp lemon juice when almost completely frozen. I love the strawberry recipe. You could probably put in 1 banana and 1/2 cup of strawberries if you want a mixed-flavor ice cream. I haven't experimented with other fruits but I am sure they'd work. Someday I'll try adding chocolate.
The Homemade Ice Cream Thread
I have a great freezer that gets used a lot each summer. I have a very simple vanilla recipe that I vary from w Oreos and Reese's and fruits and mint w green food coloring etc. what I don't have is a really good chocolate recipe. I usually just dump in a bunch or Hershey's chocolate syrup and that's it. Tastes okay but it isn't great.
Anyone have a good chocolate ice cream recipe?
