Easy Blueberry Icecream - EDC
« on: October 12, 2009, 02:38:47 am »
Recipe Name: Easy Blueberry Icecream
Book Name: EDC
Tweaking details: I used cream iceblocks instead of milk/yoghurt ones, and frozen raspberries instead of blueberries
Review: Absolutely heavenly.  I ate it for dinner (instead of the EDC Butter Chicken I made  ;D )  It is sooooo more-ish.
Score: (out of 5*) Easily a 5/5.  Would absolutely make again, in fact I have already frozen more cream in anticipation!

I've frozen some cream and have a packet of mixed berries to try this later in the week. This tweaking thread really gets you moving doesn't it ;) ;) A bit like monkey see, monkey do  :D :D :D

It seems that we read a recipe and think about it and then if someone else reports on it we give it a go.  It is a great idea.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

I will have to buy some extra cream later this week to try it.  We have had so much "yoghurt icecream" lately that something with cream will be lovely.   :)

I knew I froze that cream for something but forgot what :P :P :P Browsed my postings list until I found this.
So, I did half quantity and didn't read the recipe properly and therefore didn't add the bit of liquid to help bring the frozen cream cubes and frozen raspberries together.  However, I don't think the 1T would have helped at all as the mixture was very dry and crumbly.  As you can with the TMX, I fixed it by adding around 200mls of strawberry yoghurt which I was lucky enough to have in the fridge. I tried less to start with but it didn't look like ice-cream so I just kept adding until it did.  It is delicious but not quite what I set out to achieve. Funny how things work for some people and not others :-)) :-)) :-))

I made this again using fresh strawberries.  So delicious and fresh tasting, and very more-ish.  Unfortunately I am finding my jeans a little tight with all my over indulgence.... :o

Caroline it seems that when we purchase a TMX something happens to the water and all our clothes shrink. :P :P
