Easy Spectacular Freezer Ice Cream No Machine Needed Food

EASY, SPECTACULAR FREEZER ICE CREAM - NO MACHINE NEEDED!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix condensed milk and fruit puree/flavorings thoroughly.
• In a separate bowl, beat chilled whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
• Fold whipping cream into condensed milk mixture, along with any stir-ins (like cookie pieces, fruit chunks, candy, etc.) that you desire.
• Pour into a plastic or metal container (not glass), cover, and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight. Scoop and enjoy!
• Makes about 1 1/2 pints (3 cups).
• Note on flavorings: Fruit puree or a strong fruit juice (even concentrate) works well, but be sure it's unsweetened or relatively sour or your ice cream will be too sweet. Lemon juice works great, as does margarita mix; top with crushed pretzels when serving for a salty-sweet treat. Or use brewed coffee or tea. If using tea, steep 3 teabags in 1/3 cup of hot water for about 5-7 minutes and press the water out of the teabags when removing them. I just made an excellent chamomile tea ice cream this way; it had a lovely, delicate flavor.
• Another note: I've heard you can substitue Cool Whip for the whipping cream--I'd go with about 1 1/2 to 2 cups--but as I haven't tried it myself, I can't vouch for the results. It would make it lower fat and easier to put together, but the texture might suffer.

SPECTACULAR VANILLA ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Heat milk in a 3 quart saucepan over low heat until hot. Combine sugar, flour, and salt; gradually add sugar mix to milk, stirring until blended. Cook over medium heat 15 minutes or until thickened, stirring occasionally.
• Gradually stir about one fourth of hot mixture into beaten eggs; add to remaining hot mixture, stirring constantly. Cook 1 minute; remove from heat, and let cool. Chill at least 2 hours.
• Combine half and half and vanilla in a large bowl; add chilled custard, stirring with a wire whisk. Pour into freezer can of a 1 gallon ice cream freezer. Freeze according to manufacturer's directions. Let ripen in freezer, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

MANGO PINEAPPLE ICE CREAM ...NO MACHINE NEEDED
