Sour Cream Ice Cream

Sour cream adds tang and a smooth texture to ice cream; it’s a particularly tasty accompaniment to sweet fruit pies, cobblers and crisps. Use brown sugar for a more caramelly flavour.

2 cups sour cream

1 cup half and half

½ cup whipping cream

¾ cup sugar

1 tbsp lemon juice

2 tsp vanilla

Pinch salt

In a large bowl, whisk together sour cream, half and half, cream, sugar, lemon juice, vanilla and salt. Freeze in your ice cream machine according to manufacturer’s instructions. Makes about  ¼ cups.
