A new book and a modification of my sons favourite.

Book two is on the Apple iBook store. Its called "Make more of your own ice cream". Has several ice creams in it that would be great for the holiday season. One that is a big hit, is the Christmas pudding ice cream. Filled with lots of fruits, and Brandy.

I was playing around with some recipes. I tried one of my berry ice creams, but used 2 cups milk and only 300ml of cream. I also used fruit sugar, instead of white sugar, so I used less of it. It came out real nice. But the real treat was, I used the extra cream I had to modify my sones favourite recipe, After Dinner Mint Ice Cream. I used 900ml cream, 3/4 Cup white sugar, 25ml peppermint essence, 1 tsp vanilla, and 3 drops of blue food colouring. And as it thickened, I added in 1/2 cup chopped up chocolate pieces. It is so light and so very creamy. My son said it felt like you were eating fairy floss. I said it feels like you are eating a cloud. It just melts in your mouth. It is one where just a little satisfies you.
