I got this from someone on the Kitchenaid site:
3 cups half and half
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 cup pureed fresh cherries or strawberries
Combine all ingredients, freeze in ice cream maker
I got the ice cream maker for my kitchenaid mixer and have been looking for ways to use it. I like this recipe because it's easy and turns out very good. Enjoy!
I love my KICA!
Here's the lower fat recipe I use. It's custard based.
3 eggs
2 cups of milk
*********
heat milk to hot but not boiling.
blenderize the eggs well
pour hot milk in a stream into whirring blender
transfer egg mixture to micro safe bowl, and micro at half power in 1-2 min intervals, whisking frequently, until mixture reaches custard consistancy.
Add 1 TBSP vanilla.
Refrigerate.
******************
meantime earlier in the day, place sweetened condensed fat free milk in refrig so it's cold.
******************
assemble KICA.
Mix egg mix, 1 cup milk (I use skim), can of condensed milk, and a cup of fat free plain yogurt, and half a regular sized box of vanilla instant SF pudding. Pour into KICA and run KICA as directed. Right before done, add 2 tsp vodka or other liquer to mixer and let it blend in. This is optional- it's to help keep it from freezing so hard it's not scoopable.

To make other flavors:
if making chocolate, blend choc chips and cocoa powder into custard before refrigerating.
Add whatever extracts you like
Add mixins at end of churning.
Here are some we like:
-Heath Bar- chocolate base, butter extract, almond extract, vanilla exgtract. Chopped almonds, Heath bar pieces. Choc fudge pudding.
Mounds- coconut extract, vanilla extract, almond extract. Chopped almonds, flaked coconut, choc chips, vanilla pudding.
-Chocolate cherry almond- chocolate base, chocolate covered DRIED cherries, chopped almonds, cherry, chocolate, almond extracts. VAnilla pudding.
-butter pecan- butter and pecan or pecan praline extracts, butterscotch chips melted into custard, chopped toasted pecans (cool before adding), vanilla or butterscotch pudding.
....you get the idea!
I like the custard style because the eggs add protein and help moderate what sugar there is in the recipe. The skim milk, fat free yogurt, and fat free condensed milk don't add any fat obviously. And I tend to use dark chocolate for the antioxidants.
Leo, do you think you could use egg substitute or egg whites or at least half whole eggs/ half substitute? If we could figure out a recipe for good tasting fat free ice cream we would really have something!

No sugar? I guess it must get it's sweetness from the strawberries and the sweetened condensed milk?
mmmmmm, sounds great. I'll have to try it!! I wonder if one could make it in those ice cream freezer ball-thingies. I've thought about getting one of those for the TT for 11 year old DD to do.

I would probably use egg beaters to make the custard. Every thing else is fat free in it, so with real eggs, you're getting about one half yolk per cup of ice cream. Low fat and fat free have a bit less creamier mouth-feel, a bit more like vanilla italian ice. The pudding mix is supposed to help offset that a bit.

My recipe uses condensed milk, too, and yes, it provides all the sweetness. No further sugar is needed.
