NO-CHURN VALENTINES POMEGRANATE ICE CREAM

It's almost Valentines Day so keep it Pink.

Say hello to one of my favorite kitchen hacks, this recipe for no- churn ice cream. Pomegranate Ice Cream is really good, totally indulgent. Most ice-cream starts with a custard base that

is cooked and time consuming at best. This one isn't.

Nigella Lawson is credited :)

Grab some already seeded pomegranates at your market.

In a medium size bowl pour in 3/4 cups of Pomegranate Juice, such as 

Pom, in place of juicing two pomegranates.

Measure one cup of confection sugar.

Toss the sugar in with Pomegranate Juice and give

a good whisk till dissolved.

Pour in 2 cups of heavy cream.

With your hand mixer whip till soft peaks form in the pale pink.

I see peaks and I see something I want to lick :)

With your "Valentine Spatula" spoon the ice-cream into air tight container.

To be honest I could eat the ice-cream just like this :)

Off the the freezer for at least 4 hours, or over night.

Have a lick…

Grab some bowls because I am screaming for Ice- Creeeeam!

Scoop and top with the Pomegranates.

Spoons please and Happy Valentines Day!

The beauty of this recipe you can make it your own like…
