But I do have a recipe to share… for Key Lime Pie ice cream! I’ve been on a key lime kick lately and I was due for another creamy concoction from my ice cream maker. I initially wanted to use a recipe calling for egg yolks that require no cooking/tempering. Instead, I used this recipe, adapted from My Recipes.Here’s my adaption of Key Lime Pie Ice Cream:
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup bottled Key lime juice
1/2 cup whipping cream
Dash of salt
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1/3 cup graham cracker crumbs
Key lime wedges (optional)
Combine first 5 ingredients, stirring with a whisk. Pour mixture into freezer can of an ice-cream freezer, and freeze according to manufacturer’s instructions. Stir 1/3 cup graham crackers into ice cream. Spoon ice cream into a freezer-safe container, and cover and freeze for 1 hour or until firm. Sprinkle each serving with 1 teaspoon graham crackers. Garnish with lime wedges, if desired. **I’m also submitting this to the Got Milk? blogging event, hosted by Linda of Make Life Sweeter. She’s accepting recipes using milk, so if you have one, share it!**
Your ice cream sounds delicious! What a creative recipe- can’t wait to try it
Mmmm….I need to get an ice cream maker!
Joelen, do you know key lime pie is my favorite ice cream (and a key aspect of my engagement story?!) I’ve never tried to make it at home, but I will now!
Key lime pie anything is one of my favorites. When I was in Florida, I couldn’t get enough! I miss it…where would I find key lime juice?
Hmmmm… I see there’s a Joy Yee’s by me in Naperville! I’ll have to check it out!
I love ice cream with a sweetened condensed milk base! Especially combined with something fresh like key lime.
Thanks for your entry to Got Milk! I’ll be doing a round-up after August 7th.
Yum–your ice cream sounds delicious! I love Key Lime.
