Servings

  • 1/2 cup cold milk

Instructions

  1. Mix the cream, milk, and sugar together and stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  2. Add the food coloring if you are going to use it.
  3. Make sure your mixture and your lemon juice are cold, and when you are just about to add the cream to your ice cream maker, add the lemon juice and extract. Pour into the machine and process according to the instructions. On the basic Cuisinart machine it takes about 20 minutes.
  4. You can eat it soft right from the machine, or freeze it longer for a firmer scoop.
