[net.cooks] Ice Cream

Does anyone have good ice cream recipes to share?  Anything will be
appreciated, but I'm especially interested in mint chocolate chip
and a rich, dark chocolate.

This comes from the "Natural Foods Ice Cream Cookbook".  I misplaced it for
a few months, so when I found it I memorized the recipe. (not too difficult)!

	Philadelphia Vanilla Ice Cream  (1 quart)

	3 c light cream *
	10 T Raw Sugar **
	1 vanilla bean ***

	Heat the cream, sugar and vanilla bean until the sugar is dissolved.
	Split the vanilla bean and scrap all the seeds into the cream.
	Discard the bean.  Churn freeze.

	*   I use 2 c heavy cream and 1 c milk
	**  Granulated sugar may be used, but somehow it just isn't the same
	*** Shop around, be picky.  You want one that is not brittle and 
	    is just a little bit plump

This is the best ice cream recipe I have ever found, and I don't usually
like "plain old vanilla ice cream".  I've used it for years, and people who
are usually indifferent to ice cream love it.

I have seen several requests for ice cream recipes on the net. Well,
my favorite ice cream recipes are all in one cookbook, titled simply
"Ice Cream".  It was written by Mable and Gar Hoffman and published by
H.P. Books, P.O. Box 5367, Tuscon, AZ 85703.  I bought my copy at my
favorite discount store for about $4.  The back cover gives the
pricing as $5.95 US, $6.95 Canada. 

The book has all kinds of recipes for frozen desserts including ice
cream, frozen yogurt, sorbet, and sherbet, as well as frozen pies,
cakes, and more.  In addition to the usual chocolate, vanilla, and
strawberry, it includes recipes for other fruits (plum, cherry, all
kinds of berries, papaya, mango, pineaple, tangerine, banana, melon,
and more!), coffee, tea, and even a couple of vegies (e.g. pumpkin ice
cream). 

In other words, I highly recommend the book.
