That's right.... Homemade Ice Cream! We opened the summer season this year on Mother's Day with the famous, "K-family Strawberry Ice Cream" recipe. LaRane called on Saturday and offered for her and Katie to make dinner on Sunday; all I had to do was agree to make homemade ice cream -- done deal! This is the way best ice cream ever and a no-fail recipe. It is also extremely tasty made with peaches instead of strawberries. And for all of you candy lovers, crushed peanut m & m's make a yummy version. So are you sufficiently enticed? Would you like the recipe? That's what I thought. Here's how it goes:
2 to 3 cups strawberries, smooshed (peaches)
1 pint whipping cream, whipped
1 can evaporate milk, chilled
1 quart whole milk (don't cheat on this and use 1% or 2% -- this must be the real deal)
3 cups granulated sugar
juice of 2 lemons
Wash the fruit and cut up into smaller pieces. Smoosh up the fruit but not to the pureed stage; some chucks are good. Add the lemon juice and the granulated sugar, set aside. In another bowl, whip up the whipping cream. Pour the fruit, whipping cream,
evaporated milk and the whole milk into the metal cylinder that fits into your
ice cream maker machine. Turn on the motor and let the ingredients get mixed together.
Add the crushed ice and the rock salt and let it churn away until the
motor stops. Share with friends and family!

This sounds awesome! I hope one of my daughters will try it out soon and invite me! I'll send them the recipe.
dang... i am so jealous! it's almost too hot to break out the ice cream maker even... but maybe next week! it looks fantastic!
I forgot about the M&M version - we need to do that next time - with a lot of M&M's...and brownies...and maybe some Krispy Kreme's - that would be good
