Tasty Homemade Ice Cream Right Through The Whole Of Summer

What can be tastier in summer than tasty homemade ice cream? Homemade ice cream can be an everyday treat, but it can also be served as dessert at the best dinner party possible.

Homemade ice cream can also be as simple or as luxurious as you wish because with an ice cream machine your imagination is the limit.

Depending on our needs, there are two ice cream makers I would like to tell you about: there is the Cuisinart ICE-50BC Supreme Ice Cream Maker and then there is the Lello 4080 Musso Lussino 1.5-Quart Ice Cream Maker. You will not go wrong with any of these two machines.

To give you an idea of the tasty ice cream you will be able to make with your Cuisinart ICE-50BC Supreme Ice Cream Maker or your Lello 4080 Musso Lussino 1.5-Quart Ice Cream Maker here is a recipe for you to try.

Light Chocolate Ice Sorbet

What You Need:
  • 3 C of water
  • 2 C of superfine sugar
  • 12 oz. unsweetened chocolate, chopped
  • 4 TB brandy
How to Make It:

  1. Pour the water into a small saucepan placed over medium heat.
  2. Stir the sugar into the water until dissolved.
  3. Add the chocolate and the brandy and stir to combine.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally.
  5. Remover the pan from the heat and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
  6. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufactures directions.
Makes 1 quart

Sorbet is similar to sherbet but unlike sherbet is made without milk products. Sorbet has a slightly mushy consistency and is often made with fruit puree or chocolate.

Superfine sugar is a very fine sugar that dissolves quickly. If you can not find superfine sugar regular sugar will also work. When substituting regular sugar the measurements will remain the same.

So, I think having a look at either the Cuisinart ICE-50BC Supreme Ice Cream Maker or a Lello 4080 Musso Lussino 1.5-Quart Ice Cream Maker, is a very good idea.
