Equipment

Ingredients

  • 250 g cherries 9 oz, Note 1
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk 400 ml/14 oz
  • 4 tablespoons amaretto

Instructions

  • Cherries: Pit the cherries. Blend ¾ of them. Chop the remaining cherries.
  • Whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
  • Mix the sweetened condensed milk, amaretto, and cherry puree in a large bowl. Fold in the whipped cream and the chopped cherries.
  • Fill container: Line a freezer-safe container with plastic wrap (Note 2). Pour in the cherry mixture. Cover with more plastic wrap, placing it directly on the mixture’s surface. Cover the container with another layer of plastic wrap now on the surface of the ice cream (Note 3). If your container has a lid, place it on top. Otherwise, cover the container with a piece of aluminum foil.
  • Freeze for 12 hours or until solid. Remove from the freezer 10-15 minutes before serving to allow it to soften up slightly and become more scoopable.

Notes

  1. Fresh sweet or sour cherries.
  2. I use a loaf cake tin or a glass container.
  3. This step reduces the formation of ice crystals and prevents the ice cream from absorbing any freezer odors.
