We love our Cuisinart frozen yogurt/ice cream maker (a great wedding gift gadget - Hey, Ms. Debra!). It makes it so darn easy to whip up delicious homemade ice cream. I also learned from my friend Betsy that it makes the best frozen margaritas! But that's another post for another day. :)
Anyway, we got the basic strawberry ice cream recipe from the Cuisinart recipe booklet and figured adding peaches could only make it better.
Purty Berries
It's easy and delicious. (But if you're looking for low cal...look elsewhere!) Something about the sweet-tart flavor makes it so good.

Strawberry Peach Ice Cream
Adapted from Cuisinart
Makes about 5 cups (ten ½-cup servings)
1½ cups (total prepared) fresh strawberries and peaches
3/4 cup whole milk
2/3 cup granulated sugar
pinch salt
1½ cups heavy cream
1½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1. Hull strawberries and peel/slice peaches. Put fruit into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the chopping blade. (I use a mini chopper.) Pulse fruit until rough/finely chopped (depending on preference). Reserve in bowl.

We like it better after it goes into some Tupperware and back in the freezer for a few more hours. Yum!
Amy posted some of their favorite ice cream recipes recently, too. And, really, I don't even think there's one season for ice cream...more like a flavor for every season. So, I think we'll be trying some of those soon, too!
Andrew already has big plans for testing a holiday mint variety. I think it might involve Oreos...
