Amaretto Peach Ice Cream Ingredients

1 1/2 lb peeled peaches, pitted and sliced

3 Tbs Amaretto
2 tsp vanilla extract
6 egg yolks

Amaretto Peach Ice Cream Method

Toss the peaches in 1/4 cup sugar and lemon juice in a bowl and let this mixture stand for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes drain the peaches and puree them. Combine the rest of the sugar with a 1/4 cup water in a saucepan and bring it to the boil over moderate heat, brushing down the sides of the saucepan with a pastry brush that has been dipped in cold water and keep simmering the syrup till it is a golden color. Now mix 1/2 cup boiling water being very careful as the mixture will bubble a real lot and keep simmering this mixture until the caramel has dissolved.

Sprinkle the cookies with amaretto in a small bowl and let it stand for about 5 minutes. Then in a large bowl beat the egg yolks until they are pale and thick and add the syrup in a stream. Make sure you keep beating as you add the syrup and keep beating the mixture till it cools. Add to this mixture the peach puree, cookie mixture, cream and vanilla. Freeze the mixture in an ice cream maker.
