SOFT RASPBERRY-LIME "ICE CREAM"

Steps:

• Place all ingredients except the milk in a heavy-duty food processor fitted with the metal chopping blade and churn 1 1/2 minutes non-stop. Scrape down the work bowl sides.
• With the motor running, drizzle the evaporated milk down the feed tube and continue churning until the mixture is soft and fluffy, about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes more.
• Quickly pulse out any lumps.
• Spoon at once into dessert goblets and serve.

RASPBERRY-LEMON ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Whisk sugar, lemon juice, yolks, peel, and salt to blend in top of double boiler. Place over simmering water (do not allow bottom of pan to touch water). Whisk until mixture thickens and thermometer inserted into mixture registers 160°F, about 6 minutes. Transfer mixture to medium bowl. Chill until cold, about 45 minutes.
• Beat cream in another medium bowl until cream holds peaks. Fold into lemon mixture in 3 additions. Cover and chill at least 6 hours and up to 1 day.
• Line six 3/4-cup custard cups with foil, leaving generous overhang. Slightly soften quart of ice cream in microwave at low setting in 10-second intervals. Measure 1/2 cup ice cream and place in 1 prepared custard cup. Using back of teaspoon and dipping spoon in glass of warm water as needed, press ice cream in even layer over bottom and up sides of cup, creating hollow in center. Place cup in freezer. Repeat with remaining 5 prepared cups. Return remaining ice cream in quart to freezer. Freeze ice cream in cups 1 hour.
