It’s that time of year when stone fruits are in season!   I love the delicious peaches, plums, and especially cherries.   I just think that stone fruits are the most delicious of all the fruits.    My favorite stone fruit is the cherry.   I absolute love the sweet and slightly tart flavor of cherries.   I like both the Bing cherry and the Rainier cherry but I think the Bing’s are my favorite.  The problem is that they cost 6-7 dollars per pound most of the year.   Now that they are in season they are down to 3 dollar per pound so I picked up a few pounds to make my favorite desserts and beverages.

One thing I’ve been working on is ice cream that doesn’t require an ice cream maker.    I recently saw a recipe for cherry cream cheese ice cream.   It sounded amazing and I wanted to do something similar.   I made a base with cherries, lemon juice, and sweetened condensed milk.  Normally I’d use a lot of sugar but using the sweetened condensed milk allowed me to eliminate the extra sugar in the recipe.   I mixed it up with fresh whipped cream and froze it in the freezer.

The resulting ice cream was similar to soft serve.   It had a light and creamy base dotted with fresh cherry halves.  It’s a refreshing and delicious summer dessert that is great on its own but would also be delicious on top of pie.
