The Generic Ice Cream Formula

| | Comments (0)
This is what I consider "Generic Ice Cream".  It has no added flavors at all; you get to pick them yourself.  By itself, it's OK- it's still sweet and tastes like ice cream, but beyond that, it's kind of bland.

  Two parts cream
  One part whole milk
  One part sugar
  One part *flavor*.  You get to pick that.

Chill and freeze in whatever way you like to do such things.  I recommend chilling
to refrigerator temperature before putting it into the freezing device.  I use $25 ice-and-salt
rig I got from Target, but other systems (including liquid nitrogen) work too.

If your flavor won't dissolve in water easily (e.g. cocoa powder) then use a blender. 
If the sugar won't dissolve, heat it with the milk (or use a blender to "help it along".

Note that this recipe is "generic".  If you make it without adding a flavor, you get
what you expect - unflavored ice cream.  Well, it's sweet; that's about the only
flavor you get added.
