Easy Blackberry Ice Cream:
Ingredients:
1 cup of Fresh or frozen blackberries.
(plus a few extra for the top.)
2 cups of heavy cream (whipping Cream)
1 can of sweetened condensed milk.
1-2 Tbsp of cane sugar.
1 - Tbsp of vanilla extract.
Zest of 1 lemon.
Pinch of salt.
Directions:
Add your whipping cream to a bowl, and with a mixer, begin whipping.
Once the cream begins to thicken, add the sugar, and continue until a thicker whipped cream forms.
In a separate bowl add the sweetened condensed milk, blackberries, and a pinch of salt. Mix well.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk and berries. Do not over-mix.
Add this mixture to a container of your choice you can even buy small personal-sized tubs, but I find a parchment-lined loaf pan to be easiest and I always have it on hand.
Add the lemon zest to the top
Freeze for 12 hours; you can then allow it to soften slightly and scoop, but I find it easier to lift the parchment paper out with the ice cream and slice it like you would a loaf of bread.

Blackberries are just the beginning...
We have used this simple recipe to make many different flavours of ice cream, from Cookie dough, Candy cane, strawberry, shortbread, Oreo, Lavender-mint, and double chocolate ( cocoa powder and chocolate chips) the possibilities are endless. I hope you enjoy it!!
