Kit’s Fresh Berry Ice Cream

Mash fruit and add one cup of sugar. Stir and let stand for 1 hour.

Beat eggs and remaining sugar until lemon colored. Stir in sweetened fruit, half-and-half, evaporated milk, lemon juice, vanilla, and dash of salt.

In a separate bowl, whip cream to stiff peaks. Gently fold whipped cream into fruit mixture. Mix in ice cream maker until frozen.

Makes 6 quarts. I really don’t know how many people it serves because it depends on the size of the servings. I’ve served 25 before.

Warning: this is a big recipe and when I am making it in my Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker (1.5 qt maker), I cut it in half and still have to do it in two batches. One of these days I would love to get a White Mountain Ice Cream Maker. My mother-in-law has one and I love it. Her machine makes this whole recipe at once.
