Looks terrific Ann!!!

But again, it's not my recipe, it's Sooz's.

THUD!!!!!!!!!

It's beautiful!
If it tastes even half as good as it looks I'd be happy!

I bought heavy cream yesterday.....

YUM!!! I think this year variations on the three ingredient ice cream are going to be as much fun as variations on the Summer Torte were last year.

I love chocolate and raspberries combined in any way.

Lee

I'm going to give the ice cream a whirl today with coconut milk...

You're killin' me. Chocolate and Raspberry combination is my favorite. Someone has a Jam recipe made of Chocolate and Raspberries....I gotta try that too

Okay, everyone's beautiful pictures made me do it. I made the Strawberry last night, using almond extract as an added flavoring. It was simply delicious.

I thought the same thing, Lee, about the summer torte we all made last year. It's fun to have a recipe for the summer season, isn't it?

Ann, thankfully I have quite a lot of organic raspberries set aside in my freezer, which needed this recipe. Thanks for the inspiration!

Oh dear, my mother would love that. You know I'm going to have to make it...

Annie

Can't wait to hear how the ice cream w/coconut milk comes out!

You inspired me, Ann, but I ended up making Pina Colada Ice Cream and Black Cherry Chocokate Chunk..... a quick taste was OMG good... and I'm sure they will be even better when they firm up!

Thanks again for the inspiration!

ann t, remember the white chocolate raspberry tart drizzled w/ chocolate that you posted? I made it last year for my BD, and thought I might do a repeat this year. Just picked the raspberries today...

Now, I think I'll make an ice cream pie from this recipe instead (to try something new & different..)

Any suggestions on how to best construct it? A chocolate graham cracker crust? Whipped cream & grated semi-sweet choclate shavings to top it?

Sorry, I've been away from CF caring for family....Can someone direct me to this ice cream recipe you're all referencing? Thanks -

I knew when I was clicking on the thread....I would be sorry...then OF COURSE the picture came up and I said out loud - crap. that looks sooooo luscious to me.

Ann, you've done it again. I blame you for all the lick marks on my monitor! ha ha

Beautiful photo, lovely ice cream, great idea to add ganache!!! And gosh darn, it's healthy too, with all those anti-oxidants in the raspberries and chocolate!!!! Bravo!!!!!

Berries and chocolate smiles,
Sooz

Yes please, could someone direct me to this recipe also.

The recipe should read: Put it in the Freezer - not the fridge.

I added vanilla rather than vodka and I stir every half hour or so until the ice cream is set and more or less frozen. I think that helps keep it creamy too.

I want to try it with pears next time.

Ann

Oh crud! Thanks Ann.... I didn;t actually read it, just made it and my brain filled in "freezer" rather than "fridge". SORRY!

Alexa

I know you are going to tell me you didn't do it on purpose to have the ice cream matching the bowl's color.

Now I have a problem. I want to also make some, but my freezer is completely packed.

Ann, can you mail me some? :-)

dcarch

Ann, thanks for the correction! It goes in the freezer, not the fridge!

I went back to the other thread and posted a correction too! If it's put in the fridge, you get soup, I think!

Apologies!
Sooz

I am so making this tomorrow. I think I will take the easy road and put in blobs of magic shell while it is curing in the freezer. Ann, yours looks so good. It is also my very favorite combination.

Is this firm enough to say layer in a pie? will it be "cuttable?" Even with the vodka?

It sure is. I made ice cream cookies/bars using the peach ice cream made from the same recipe.

I never added the vodka. Just vanilla instead.

Ann

I just saw this recipe. Can I just put the mixture in my ice cream maker? Has anyone done that yet?

lindac - I made this recipe into a pie and it turned out beautifully.

I actually made two separate batches and when they were freezing I made a crust with crushed chocolate wafers & butter, which I baked & cooled.

I filled the cooled crust w/ 1 1/2 batches of the ice cream and let it set in the freezer for about 3 hrs. It cut very neatly into slices which I topped with fresh whipped cream and some shaved chocolate curls.

I had a candle on my piece as it was my birthday dessert. Everyone loved it!

I'm resurrecting this thread just because it's getting to be Time for Ice Cream!!!! Maybe we'll get some posts for new flavors or old favorites, using this method, or using an ice cream maker! (I made apple cinnamon ice cream a couple of days ago--it was gone inside of 24 hours! - I'll post the recipe if anyone is interested--almost as easy as the recipe that started this thread!)

That looks delicious! Never heard of 3 ingredient ice cream.

Made Mocha Latte a couple weeks ago. Thinking about trying a tiramisu recipe either ice cream or gelato.

Mocha Latte Ice Cream

I increase the chocolate subbing dark and skip the pecans.

Thanks for bringing this back up. I've been wondering the past couple weeks if people are still making this. Aside from it being so fast and easy, I love that it doesn't make a ton of it. Easier to portion control. I have a bag of mixed berries....maybe tomorrow.

I freeze strawberries and bananas for smoothies, but they're great for this ice cream too. This summer if any fruit needs to be used up, I'm going to prep and freeze it. Apples, I'll peel, pit and cut, then nuke til tender with a little sugar and cinnamon. Apple pie ice cream....mmmm.

I had also forgotten about this ice cream, it was fast and delicious, I'll have to make it again. I did make strawberry, and a banana version with some peanut butter swirled in, but now I'm thinking dark chocolate mocha.

I think Elery's daughter and her husband is coming up for 4th of July, I might have to make some ice cream. I wonder if my home canned apple pie filling would freeze OK, so I could use that, since it's already cooked....

Annie

I think it would work great!

Recipe again, please!!

Now that I see the recipe, I see what I got wrong yesterday. I didn't even know this was posted, but I still made it. So yes, it is still being used. Except, be sure to use 3/4 a cup of cream, not more! Or it just doesn't have the right consistency.

annie1992

rita and Tracey, the recipe is on the What's For Dinner thread. The original recipe was posted by Sooz, and Shaun posted it on WFD.

Instant ice cream

1 (12 ounce) frozen unsweetened strawberries
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream (you can use half-and-half)

Place strawberries and sugar in food processor.
Process until finely chopped, scraping bowl occasionally.
With processor running slowly add cream.
Process until mixture is smooth and creamy.
You can also use peaches, blueberries...........

*I added 2 T Vodka to keep it creamy.

THEN put into freezer.

Annie

The recipe I use is:

One 10-oz pkg frozed sliced mixed berries

( Peaches)

1/2 cup sugar

2/3 cup heavy cream

(I added vanilla )

Additional fruit optional

I made a minor change by adding additional fruit and vanilla.

Let's just say, I'd need an additional pint of berries to compensate for the amount of cream I put in! Boy, don't go from my memory.

I get apple cinnamon frozen yogurt, love it. Kinda like instant apple pie a la mode.

I reached for the cream on the shelf at the market and looked at the ingredients. There were 4 brands of heavy cream. ALL had additives! Is that normal? Additionally they were all ultra pastureized. I know that I've seen recipes that state one should not use that type of processed cream. If my wonderful supermarket had only ultra pastureized cream, where does one find some that is not?

Ellen, no idea why recipes state no ultra pastureized. I buy Organic Valley dairy products. Their heavy cream is ultra pastureized, but if it has a negative effect on my ice cream it sure isn't evident.

Made tiramisu ice cream today. It was rich, but no flavor match for the mocha latte that we love. I did learn that adding liquor (in this case Kahlua) made the ice cream softer, easier to scoop. From now on I'll make that addition to the mocha latte. Also discovered I'd rather bits of chocolate in the ice cream, than a ganache topping.

Compumom, I get my cream from Trader Joe's--is there one near you?

CindyMac, that is one delicious looking photo.

I made chocolate ice cream today from a recipe on joyofbaking.com--there is even a nice video there! I didn't have a money shot of it, but you can see it doing it's magic inside my little Rival ice cream maker. It's hardening up in the freezer right now for Saturday's dessert, and earlier, I made a custard base for what I'm calling Vanilla Almond Cherry Garcia. I usually add 1 to 2 Tablespoons of vodka to my ice cream to keep it from being too icey-hard.

Also pictured here is a photo of the 3 ingredient raspberry ice cream I made a while ago. I can't recall if I added shaved chocolate to it, or if those specks are the raspberry seeds.

Smiles,

Sooz

I made these today... from L to R, Vanilla Almond Cherry Garcia, So Darn Good Chocolate, & 3 ingredient Blueberry Ice Cream.

Sooz, all three look good. Chocolate is my favourite but I would love a bowl of the raspberry.

Dumb question. What is an appropriate moderately priced vodka. I do not drink. And the only thing I am sure of is that I don't want whipped cream flavored vodka. Overwhelmed by the selection..

Agmiss, your question reminded me of an ABC News test years ago. People like to claim the more expensive is better, but their taste buds failed the test.

"---Agmiss, your question reminded me of an ABC News test years ago. People like to claim the more expensive is better, but their taste buds failed the test.---"

I saw that program. John Stossel's "Give Me A Break".

Interesting program, but not as interesting as the other one he did. He found that art experts couldn't tell which paintings were done by children or by real artists.

No, it was 20/20.

Vodka Taste Test video

Never heard of the vodka to help with texture. I'll have to try that. I make a matcha green tea one using coconut milk. I made ice cream sandwiches last summer using a gluten-free chocolate wafer cookie. (added a bit of mint to the 'cream'. ) It is a good fruit year so far. No fruit at all last year. Cherry tree is full. Raspberries and blueberries should be great.

A few weeks ago made a raspberry(frozen) / rhubarb tart and tucked chopped dark chocolate all around the crust edge. Love that combination.

(i don't usually do no dairy/gluten-free but did it for a friend)

I use vodka in my homemade bug spray so just bought the cheapest that was in a glass container. Wanted glass since it will be on the shelf forever.

CindyMac, "No, it was 20/20."

John Stossel was part of 20/20.

dcarch

I'm aware of that, but Bill Ritter did the segment I was referring to.

I'm still on the ice cream kick, trying new recipes! Here are photos using two different kinds of Oreo cookies. Yum!

Yum. Yum. Now I want ice cream for breakfast.
