- Hey dudes, I'm Hilah and today on Hilah Cooking,
I'm gonna show you how to make peace ice cream,
because nothing says, "I've got a boner for America,"
more than homemade ice cream on a Fourth of July.

And now let's make peach ice cream.
You're gonna need a couple of ripe peaches.
July's a good time to make this
'cause peaches are in season.
Peel one of them, or peel both of them, or peel neither
of them, I'm peeling one of them, and the unpeeled one
is going in the blender, and the other one we will
save to add later.
So, I'm using a blender here for a couple of reasons.
One, it's easy.
Whole milk.
And two, when you make homemade ice cream, it's hard to
get the amount of air whipped into the ice cream that
they are able to do at professional ice cream factories.
The blender helps kind of airate it so you end up with
a lighter ice cream that doesn't freeze quite as hard,
as normal homemade ice cream.
We're gonna add some heavy cream.
And, when you have like a,
home ice cream maker, a lot of times the ice cream comes
out pretty soft, like soft serve at first.
Then, you can put it in the freezer for an hour or so
to firm it up if you want.
I kind of like eating it as soft serve, but having the
extra air in there keeps it from getting so hard after
you store it in the freezer for a few days.
Another thing we're going to add to help with that is honey.
Honey is, a natural, invert sugar,
like corn syrup is,
and all that means is it has a way of interfering with
the ice crystals, so they don't,
form so much.
So you don't end up with crystal-ly, chuncky ice cream.
Honey, cream cheese.
If you don't like cream cheese, use it anyways
because it doesn't actually taste like cream cheese.
It just adds a little bit of tartness, and also again,
the extra fat in there helps it from freezing so hard.
And some sugar, just half a cup, not a whole ton.
Add a pitch of salt,
and a little bit of vanilla extract.
Whoa, like a tar pit happening in there.
Now, just blend this up until it's super smooth.
Depending on how big your blender jar is, it might,
fill all the way up, be careful.
Now we can pour it into our ice cream maker.
So I'm using this kind that most people have, where you
have the canister that you have to freeze ahead of time,
so make sure that you do that.
And if you wanted to make the custard part,
I don't really like custards, but if you wanted to make
the base ahead of time and put it in the fridge,
you can also do that.
Turn the machine on, pour it in while it's moving so it
doesn'T just immediately freeze to the outside,
and let it run for about 20 minutes for this machine,
until it's really thickened up, then we're gonna add in
the diced peace.
The other peach, we're going to dice it up and we'll add
that in towards the end as it's starting to solidify.
Okay, ice cream time is ready.
See, it's go so much air in it, it looks perfect.
It's like over-flowing almost.
If you like this recipe, I also did peache melba,
which is excellent, last year, with some vanilla ice cream
and some poached peaches and raspberry sauce.
It's delicious, I'll put a link to that in a card.
Let's see what chef baby has to say about
his first ice cream.
Well, he's got some granola bars in his mouth right now.
What do you think?
You never had ice cream before.
He likes it everyone, like every red blooded American
boy does.
Okay, that's probably enough ice cream.
