Blackberry Ice Cream

Ahhh, is there anything like ice cream on a cold day?   You're already cold and wrapped in a afghan and just taking a bite makes you snuggle deeper.  I love it!  I've been working on a bunch of different kinds of ice cream that you can make at home and this is one of my favorites.  It like eating blackberry pie.  And who doesn't like pie? Speaking of pie.  My sister made this TO DIE FOR blackberry pie and we put a scoop of this ice cream on top.  It's sooo stinkin' good! I'll be sharing that recipe with you later in the week =)

Blackberry Ice Cream

Ingredients You'll Need:

• 2 cups blackberry juice
• 1/4 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon cornstarch
• 1 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk 
• 16 ounces heavy whipping cream

Direction:

• Combine blackberry juice, lemon juice, cinnamon, sugar, and cornstarch in a medium sauce pan and bring to a boil, stirring often.  Set aside.  Cool and refrigerate until completely cold.
• Once the blackberry mixture is cool, put heavy whipping cream in a mixer and beat until peaks begin to form.  In a separate large bowl combine condensed milk and blackberry juice.  Fold in heavy whipping cream.
• Place in a 64 ounce container and freeze overnight.  This makes about 8 cups of ice cream.  I use an old 64 ounce ice cream container and it fills it up to the brim.  

Enjoy, and close your eyes, thinking happy thoughts while you snuggle in front of the fire.
