Creamy Lemon Ice Cream Recipes

CREAMY LEMON ICE CREAM (NO-CHURN)

Steps:

• Combine milk, cream and sugar in a bowl.
• Whisk well until sugar dissolves.
• Stir in lemon zest and lemon juice. Mix well.
• Pour into a bowl, cover and freeze approximately 2 hours, until mixture is just starting to set up, and very thick and chilled.
• Remove from freezer and beat with an electric mixer until mixture has about doubled in volume.
• Place mixture in a bowl, cover and return to freezer. Freeze until solid.

NO CHURN LEMON ICE CREAM WITH RASPBERRY SWIRL

Steps:

• Add the raspberries, sugar and 1 teaspoon of water to a small saucepan and heat over medium-low. Use the back of a wooden spoon to slightly break up the raspberries. Cook, stirring regularly, until the raspberries have completely broken up and are saucy, 3 to 4 minutes. Strain mixture over a bowl slightly pressing the pulp to release as much liquid as possible. Discard the pulp and seeds. Cool liquid completely.
• Add the sweetened condensed milk, lemon zest and lemon juice to a large bowl and stir to combine. In a separate large bowl add the heavy cream and whip with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes. In batches, delicately fold the whipped cream into the sweetened condensed milk mixture, making sure it's fully incorporated before adding another batch.
• Pour half of the whipped cream mixture into a 9-by-5 loaf pan and spoon 1 1/2 tablespoons of the raspberry sauce over the top. Using a wooden skewer or a chop stick, swirl and slightly stir the raspberry sauce into the whipped cream mixture. Top with the remaining whipped cream mixture and spoon another tablespoon of raspberry sauce on top. Once again, swirl the sauce into the whipped cream mixture. Loosely cover the loaf pan with plastic wrap and place in the freezer. Freeze until solid, 6 to 8 hours, preferably overnight. Scoop into bowls and serve.

SUPER LEMON ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Combine heavy cream, half and half, sugar, and lemon zest in a saucepan; bring to a simmer over low heat. Cook and stir until sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Cover saucepan and allow the mixture to steep for 10 minutes.
• Uncover pan and bring back to a simmer over low heat. Beat the egg yolks in a bowl. Gradually stir one cup of the hot cream mixture into the eggs, several tablespoons at a time. This will help to bring the eggs up to temperature without scrambling them. Stir the egg mixture back into the cream mixture in the saucepan. Cook and stir over low heat until the mixture just coats the back of a spoon, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl; cover. Refrigerate overnight.
• Stir the lemon juice into the cold ice cream mixture. Freeze in a 4 to 5 quart ice cream maker according to manufacturer's directions. Transfer ice cream to a lidded freezer container, and freeze for 4 hours to ripen flavors before serving.
