I'm on a Ben & Jerry's kick. Since the last recipe was so good, I thought I'd try another one (I found this recipe on recipezaar.com). I went to the farmer's market this week and picked up some fresh Chilton County peaches that were so juicy. I think this is mine and Aubrey's favorite ice cream recipe so far.
Ingredients:
2 cups peaches, finely chopped
1 1/4 cups sugar
Juice of 1/2 lemon
2 large eggs
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 cup milk
Directions:
Combine the peaches, 1/2 cup of the sugar, and the lemon juice in a bowl.
Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours, stirring the mixture every 30 minutes.
Remove the peaches from the refrigerator and drain the juice into another bowl.
Return the peaches to the refrigerator. Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes.
Whisk in the remaining 3/4 cup sugar, a little at a time, then continue whisking until completely blended, about 1 minute more.
Pour in the cream and milk and whisk to blend.
Add the peach juice and blend.
Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze following manufacturer's instructions.
After the ice cream stiffens (about 2 minutes before if is done) add the peaches, then continue freezing until the ice cream is ready.
Makes 1 generous quart.

Oh yuM! I think if I made this ice cream I'd eat it all before it made it to the freezer!
Maryanna - the ice cream looks fantastic and I wanted you to know that I really enjoy your blog and would like to give you an excellence award!
It does look great, despite the eggs! :-) I'll bet it would be good sans eggs, too! :-)
