Vanilla Cherry Ice Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk together the condensed milk, vanilla and salt in a large bowl; set aside.
• Whip the cream with a mixer on medium-high speed until firm peaks form, about 2 minutes. Fold about 1 cup of the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture with a rubber spatula until combined, then fold the lightened mixture into the whipped cream until well blended. Fold in half of the mashed cherries. Pour into a chilled 9-by-5-by-3-inch metal loaf pan. Sprinkle the top with the remaining mashed cherries. Freeze, covered, until solid and scoopable, about 5 hours.

Steps:

• Combine cherries, 1/2 cup sugar, lemon juice, and balsamic vinegar in a bowl and mix well. Set aside for 2 hours. Drain, reserving juice.
• Mash 1/2 the cherries with a fork or puree in a blender.
• Combine milk and remaining 1/2 cup sugar in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer until sugar has dissolved, 1 to 2 minutes. Add reserved cherry juice, cream, pureed cherries, vanilla extract; mix to combine.
• Pour mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions, about 20 minutes. Add remaining quartered cherries and freeze for an additional 5 minutes. Ice cream should be nice and creamy. If you prefer it harder, transfer to an airtight container and freeze until firm, about 4 hours. Remove from freezer 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Melt chocolate and coconut oil together over a double boiler or in the microwave. Transfer to a small baking pan and freeze at least 1 hour. Use the tip of a knife to crack and remove from pan. Chop into 1/4-inch chunks (you should have 1 cup); set aside.
• In a blender, puree thawed cherries with lemon juice and salt. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve. Measure 1 1/4 cups (reserve the rest for another use). Combine milk, cream, corn syrup, and sugar in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes. Strain into a bowl set in an ice-water bath. Let stand, stirring occasionally, until cold, about 5 minutes. Stir in cherry puree. Refrigerate, covered, at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
• Freeze mixture in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. When the ice cream is the texture of soft serve, fold in chocolate chunks and Luxardo cherries. Transfer to a loaf pan and freeze, wrapped in plastic, up to 1 week. Let soften at room temperature 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Place cherries in a food processor; process into small pieces.
• Mix heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, milk, and vanilla extract together until well combined. Pour into an ice cream maker and turn on. Add the chopped cherries while the machine is running; freeze until desired consistency is reached, about 20 minutes. Stir in chocolate chunks.

Steps:

• Put the cherries, 2 tablespoons sugar and the rum in a medium saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until syrupy, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool, then refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, heat the milk and the remaining 1/2 cup sugar in a saucepan over medium-low heat, whisking to dissolve the sugar. Whisk the egg yolks in a small bowl. Gradually whisk about 1/2 cup of the warm milk mixture into the eggs, then whisk the egg mixture into the saucepan. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture coats a spoon and registers 168 degrees F on a candy thermometer, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat; add the semisweet and unsweetened chocolate and the butter and set aside until the chocolate melts, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer the chocolate mixture to a blender and puree until smooth. Pour into a large bowl and stir in the heavy cream and vanilla. Refrigerate until chilled, at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Churn the chilled chocolate mixture in an ice cream maker. Strain the cherry mixture, reserving the syrup. When the ice cream is very thick, add the cherries and continue churning until incorporated. Transfer to a freezer-safe container. Drizzle in the reserved cherry syrup and swirl with a spoon. Cover and freeze until firm, at least 4 hours.
