Key Lime Ice Cream image

Fresh key lime juice is best but bottled is ok. If you have to, you may substitute fresh regular lime juice.

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 1/2 cups heavy cream
6 large egg yolks
1 (15 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup fresh key lime juice

Steps:

  • Bring the cream to a simmer in a medium saucepan; slowly beat the hot cream into the egg yolks in a medium mixing bowl.
  • Pour the entire mixture back into the saucepan and place over low heat.
  • Stir constantly with a whisk or wooden spoon until the custard thickens slightly (be careful not to let the mixture boil or the eggs will scramble).
  • Remove pan from heat and pour the hot custard through a strainer into a large, clean bowl.
  • Let the custard cool slightly, then stir in the sweetened condensed milk and key lime juice.
  • Cover and refrigerate until cold or overnight.
  • Stir the cold custard well; then freeze in 1 or 2 batches in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's directions.
  • When finished, the ice cream will be soft but can be eaten; for firmer ice cream, transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze several hours or overnight.
  • *Margarita Ice Cream-add ¼ cup tequila and ¼ cup orange liqueur before freezing.

I'm allergic to dairy, so I used almond milk instead of regular milk. It turned out great!

I had some trouble getting the ice cream to churn properly. I think I might have over-churned it.

This ice cream is a bit too tart for my taste. I think I would add a little more sugar next time.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover key limes. I always have a few limes left over after making key lime pie, and this is a delicious way to use them up.
