Easy Blueberry Icecream - EDC

[Caroline J]

Recipe Name: Easy Blueberry Icecream
Book Name: EDC
Tweaking details: I used cream iceblocks instead of milk/yoghurt ones, and frozen raspberries instead of blueberries
Review: Absolutely heavenly.  I ate it for dinner (instead of the EDC Butter Chicken I made  )  It is sooooo more-ish.
Score: (out of 5*) Easily a 5/5.  Would absolutely make again, in fact I have already frozen more cream in anticipation!

I've frozen some cream and have a packet of mixed berries to try this later in the week. This tweaking thread really gets you moving doesn't it A bit like monkey see, monkey do

I am freezing some cream as we speak. I can't wait.

It seems that we read a recipe and think about it and then if someone else reports on it we give it a go.  It is a great idea.

I will have to buy some extra cream later this week to try it.  We have had so much "yoghurt icecream" lately that something with cream will be lovely.

I knew I froze that cream for something but forgot what Browsed my postings list until I found this.
So, I did half quantity and didn't read the recipe properly and therefore didn't add the bit of liquid to help bring the frozen cream cubes and frozen raspberries together.  However, I don't think the 1T would have helped at all as the mixture was very dry and crumbly.  As you can with the TMX, I fixed it by adding around 200mls of strawberry yoghurt which I was lucky enough to have in the fridge. I tried less to start with but it didn't look like ice-cream so I just kept adding until it did.  It is delicious but not quite what I set out to achieve. Funny how things work for some people and not others

I made this again using fresh strawberries.  So delicious and fresh tasting, and very more-ish.  Unfortunately I am finding my jeans a little tight with all my over indulgence....

[judydawn]

Ah ha, so it works with frozen cream and FRESH fruit, not frozen as per recipe.  Got it  Recipe book has been changed so I don't get caught again Thanks CarolineJ

[Caroline J]

First time I made it with frozen raspberries, second time with fresh- both work

[judydawn]

Oops, that blew my theory out of the water - I take my hat off to your Caroline for mastering this one when I can't

Caroline it seems that when we purchase a TMX something happens to the water and all our clothes shrink.
