Ice Cream….Summer of 2009
Last year I made a post on the joys of homemade Ice Cream. My husband had received an ice cream maker as a gift and since that time the Ice Cream literally is flowing in my home.
I love Ice Cream and some of the concoctions he has come up with are delicious…others not so good.
Summertime is a perfect time to make ice cream with the kids (or without). Knowing what goes into your Ice Cream is half the battle towards enjoying old favorites. Here are one of the more popular ice cream recipes:
CHOCOLATE BANANA
3 eggs
1 cup sugar
2 oz bittersweet chocolate
2 cups table cream (18% milkfat)
1 1/2 cups milk
6 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 over-ripe bananas
Juice of 1 lemon
Beat eggs lightly
Beat sugar in to eggs
Melt chocolate in milk and cream
When chocolate partially melted, stir in cocoa powder.
Continue stirring chocolate/cream mixture until hot but not quite boiling
Stir hot chocolate/cream mixture in to eggs.
Stir in vanilla extract.
Cool.
When ready to make, mash bananas and lemon juice together
Make chocolate mixture in ice cream maker.
Just before ready, add banana mixture.
Note: Use good quality, *very* ripe bananas. Otherwise your ice cream will have a strange flavor.
