I was in a mood for home made ice-cream. So I have prepared 2 of my favorite ice creams.

They are delicious. You have the recipes below if you want to make your own ice cream

Raspberry Ice cream

4 cups fresh raspberries
1 1/2 cups sugar
Juice of half a lemon
2 eggs
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup milk

Toss the raspberries, 3/4 cup sugar, and the lemon juice together in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes. Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy, add the remaining 3/4 cup sugar, a little at a time, then continue whisking until completely blended. Pour in the heavy cream and milk and whisk to blend. Drain the juice from the raspberries into the cream mixture and blend. Mash the raspberries until pureed and stir them into the cream mixture. Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze following the manufacturer’s instructions.

Cinnamon Ice cream

3 cups heavy cream
1 1/2 cups whole milk
2 vanilla beans, split lengthwise
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
6 egg yolks
2 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Combine cream and milk in a large sauce pan. Scrape in seeds from vanilla beans; add beans. Bring just to simmer. Whisk sugar and yolks in large bowl to blend. Gradually whisk in hot cream mixture. Return mixture to same saucepan. Stir over medium-low heat until custard thickens and leaves path on back of spoon when finger is drawn across, about 6 min. (do not boil). Strain into large bowl. Whisk in ground cinnamon. Chill until cold, about 3 hours.
Transfer custard to ice cream maker and process according to manufacturer’s instructions. Transfer ice cream to a covered container and freeze until firm. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Keep frozen).

These recipes are very simple to make and they are super tasty.
