Lemon Ice Cream Surprise Recipes

Steps:

• In a saucepan whisk together the zest, the lemon juice, the sugar, and the eggs, whisk in 1 cup of the half-and-half and the vanilla, and cook the mixture over moderately high heat, whisking constantly, until it just comes to a simmer. Strain the custard through a fine sieve into a bowl, pressing hard on the zest, and chill it, covered with plastic wrap, until it is cold. Whisk in the remaining 1 cup half-and-half and freeze the mixture in an ice-cream freezer according to the manufacturer's instructions. Makes about 1 quart.

Steps:

• Spoon the ice cream into a rimmed baking sheet and spread to 1/2-inch thickness. Freeze until firm, 2 to 3 hours. Use a 3-inch round cookie cutter to cut the ice cream into 12 rounds, reshaping the ice cream "sheet" as needed. Keep frozen.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Stir together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cornstarch and salt in a large bowl; set aside.
• Beat the butter and granulated sugar with an electric mixer at high speed until creamy. Add the egg, and beat until the yellow disappears. Beat in the lemon zest, juice and extract.
• Add the flour mixture in 2 batches and beat until combined. Roll the dough into twenty-four 2-inch balls. Roll the balls in coarse sugar, if using, and place on the prepared pans. Use the bottom of a glass to press down the dough balls.
• Bake until the cookies are set and lightly golden on the bottoms, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool completely.
• To assemble the sandwiches, spread 1 to 2 tablespoons lemon curd on the flat sides of 12 cookies. Sandwich an ice cream round between 2 cookies (one lemon curd-coated and one uncoated). Roll the edges in the sprinkles. Wrap and freeze the ice cream sandwiches until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Add the raspberries, sugar and 1 teaspoon of water to a small saucepan and heat over medium-low. Use the back of a wooden spoon to slightly break up the raspberries. Cook, stirring regularly, until the raspberries have completely broken up and are saucy, 3 to 4 minutes. Strain mixture over a bowl slightly pressing the pulp to release as much liquid as possible. Discard the pulp and seeds. Cool liquid completely.
• Add the sweetened condensed milk, lemon zest and lemon juice to a large bowl and stir to combine. In a separate large bowl add the heavy cream and whip with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes. In batches, delicately fold the whipped cream into the sweetened condensed milk mixture, making sure it's fully incorporated before adding another batch.
• Pour half of the whipped cream mixture into a 9-by-5 loaf pan and spoon 1 1/2 tablespoons of the raspberry sauce over the top. Using a wooden skewer or a chop stick, swirl and slightly stir the raspberry sauce into the whipped cream mixture. Top with the remaining whipped cream mixture and spoon another tablespoon of raspberry sauce on top. Once again, swirl the sauce into the whipped cream mixture. Loosely cover the loaf pan with plastic wrap and place in the freezer. Freeze until solid, 6 to 8 hours, preferably overnight. Scoop into bowls and serve.
