Cherry cream ice cream - a creamy fruit treat
When the cherries are ripe and dark red from the tree, there is only one right answer: add them to ice cream! This cherry cream ice cream combines the sweet and tart fruitiness of cherries with the smooth creaminess of cream and milk - not a sorbet, but a full-bodied dessert that melts in the mouth.
Whether it's the perfect end to a barbecue or a cool reward on a hot day, this ice cream brings the cherry season straight to the cone. The preparation is doubly worthwhile if you have high-quality cherries and a good ice cream maker to hand.
With little extras such as a dash of cherry liqueur or a few chocolate chips, it becomes an ice cream reminiscent of Black Forest gateau - but straight from the tub.

Tips and tricks for cherry cream ice cream
- Use ripe cherries: The darker and sweeter the cherries, the more intense the flavor. If you use fresh cherries, you should think about buying a cherry pit. Alternatively, you can also use cherries from a jar. Especially if there are no Season is.
- Fine puree or fruit pieces? Depending on how powerful the blender you are using is and how much time you have, more or fewer pieces of fruit will remain. If you prefer a silky ice cream without fruit pieces, pass the ice cream mixture through a sieve.
- A squeeze of lemon: The lemon juice enhances the fruity note of the cherries and balances the flavor, but can also be omitted.
- With or without cherry liqueur: A dash of cherry brandy or cherry liqueur gives the ice cream a kick - simply leave it out for children.
- Serving tip: Decorated with chopped dark chocolate and a few fresh cherries, the ice cream is an eye-catcher in any ice cream sundae. With kirsch it is reminiscent of Black Forest gateau. Also my recipe for a crunchy chocolate icing goes very well with this cherry ice cream.
