Cherry Garcia ice cream has chunks of chocolate and cherries in there, and oh man it is my favorite ice cream to eat on a hot Summer day. It really hits the spot! This ice cream you don’t need an ice cream maker to make it. The whipped cream gets beat until stiff peaks form, and you can even do that with your hands. If not just use some electric beaters or a stand mixer! I’ve never tried whisking my own whipping cream, but I’ve seen the chefs on tv shows like Chopped do that. Then you fold in all the ingredients. I seem to have an ingredient problem whenever I make ice cream. Either I don’t put in enough add-ins or I’ll put in too much! Since it’s Cherries for Charity week, I picked up a 3 pound bag of cherries for a $1.99 a pound. The grocery store donates .25 of every pound of cherries sold to a local charity here in town. That is the best deal ever for cherries. Lately, they’ve been 3.99 a pound. Trust me, I’ll be back for about 2 or 3 more bags of cherries by the end of the week. I’ll be looking for more cherry recipes to make too.
