We are in the middle of a heat wave (or so it feels like) in So Cal. So we (okay, I!) decided that this month should be all about ice cream. We may not have milk or cream in abundance, but we sure do have an affinity for ice cream! I hope you all enjoy the recipes. First off, a little spiked ice cream. I got this recipe from my mom, and I am not sure where she found it.
Irish Cream Ice Cream
- 2 cups Whipping Cream
- 2 cups Half and Half
- 1 cup Sugar
- 1/2 cup Bailey’s (you can easily make your own if you don’t have any in your cupboards)
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, stirring until sugar dissolves. Freeze in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. It took a little over an hour in mine. I usually leave it in the freezer for awhile before serving, this keeps it from being too runny!
What other ice cream flavors do you want to see? Are you looking forward to the rest of Abundant Crop: Ice Cream?
i can’t believe i haven’t made this yet–it’s one of my favorite ice cream flavors! can’t wait to try this SOON!
It is too simple not to make it! I hope you like it!
Sounds wonderful, I’ll try it soon!!
The meaning of the phrase “ice cream” varies from one country to another. Phrases such as “frozen custard”, “frozen yogurt”, “sorbet”, “gelato” and others are used to distinguish different varieties and styles. In some countries, such as the United States, the phrase “ice cream” applies only to a specific variety, and most governments regulate the commercial use of the various terms according to the relative quantities of the main ingredients.
