2 - you got a good recipe for coffee ice cream? That's my ALL TIME favorite flavor! We've done French Vanilla (fat content was so high ya had to scrape a layer of grease off your teeth after eating), Chocolate w/oreos, and mint chip so far. Maybe huckleberry next - tis the season!

LOL - my kiddo helped me make the custard for it. "Ben, I need you to separate 8 eggs for me."

3 minutes later, he has scattered the eggs around the kitchen, telling them "you sit over here, and you sit over here, and you stay in your corner and DON'T TOUCH YOUR SISTER, and......"

He cracks me up!

Mmmmmm Cherry honeycomb sounds YUMMY! Sweet cherries or pie cherries?

It was a combo - I picked up a bag of sweet cherries and a bag of rainier cherries. I think I'm going to try classic chocolate for the next batch.

We made cherry cream cheese ice cream.

Simply amazing texture, I highly recommend it.

My wife was talking about it at one time. Loved certain kinds, talked about what she'd like in ice cream, etc. So I buy her a machine...simply plug it in, drop in the ingredients, walk away and let it mix and freeze.

She hasn't used it once. Ever.

18: she's missing out! The really good recipes require a little more time (cooking and chilling custard), but she could just add heavy cream to instant pudding mix and that would work just as well. Easier than snow ice cream!

On a side note, a friend gave me a gift card to Bed Bath and Beyond, and I spent it on a fancy schmancy Cuisanart model just like you described - freeze the bowl, drop everything in and walk away. Ended up returning it and getting a $20 Rival salt'n'ice model at Walmart instead - we're going to burn out the motor on this thing before summer is out!
