Fat man's
1 quart cream
1 quart half and half
1 small can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup hershey's chocolate syrup
one bag milky way mini bars
milk - enough to fill the ice cream can to the "fill line".
In a saucepan melt the candy bars with the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate syrup. When slightly cooled add it to the cream and half and half in your ice-cream maker and fill to the fill line with milk. Freeze according to manufactures directions. Enjoy!!
Lemon Ice-cream
1 quart cream
1 quart half and half
1 to 1 1/2 cups fresh squeezed lemon juice
approximately 4 cups of sugar. Depends on how sweet/tart you like it
1 teaspoon (or lid full) of lemon extract
Pour creams into ice-cream canister and add remaining ingredients stirring until sugar has dissolved. Add milk to fill line and freeze.
Notes:
I usually use just about a cup of lemon juice and probably a little less than 4 cups of sugar.
I will often serve the lemon ice-cream with fresh berries on top and the chocolate with some chocolate shavings on top. Looks pretty!!
I always just use skim milk (what we have on hand) to fill to the full line.
Last time I made it I accidently bought fat free half and half and found it really did not make a big difference. Just a little less creamy. Saves a few calories I guess. But then it is called "fat man's"
Which brings me to my next tip. We made it with snickers bars on the 4th of July so you can really use any candy bar you think sounds good.
I like to freeze the ice-cream several hours before we eat it so it can set up in the freezer before we eat it.
Both of these recipes are for four quart ice-cream makers.
