Cherry Bailey’s Ice Cream

I can’t remember sex all that well, but from what I can remember, my Cherry Bailey’s ice cream is altogether better.

This is startlingly simple but jaw-droppingly divine. I made it up myself after reading one too many ridiculously complicated way to use my beautiful fresh cherries to make ice cream.

Ingredients

-600gm fresh cherries, de-stalked, pitted and halved
-500ml thickened cream
-1/4 cup milk
-1/2 cup Baileys Irish Cream
-100g sugar

Method

-Put the cherries in a saucepan with the sugar and cook gently, until you have a fair amount of juice in the pan. Some of the pieces might start to disintegrate, but you want the majority of the cherries to still be whole. Put the mixture in the refrigerator until cool.
-When the mix is cool, remove it and add the cream, milk, Bailey’s. Mix well, before transferring to an ice cream maker and churning for around 20-25 minutes.
-Freeze for at least two hours.
-Eat and drool. At the same time.
