2 cup double cream
1 cup full fat milk
1 cup castor sugar
1/2 cup baileys
1 pinch salt
Directions
Whisk all of this stuff together until all the sugar has been
dissolved.
Then freeze as you would normally freeze ice cream, either in an ice
cream maker or in a tub in the freezer whisking every half hour or so.
Because of the alcohol content of this ice cream it will usually take
around 12 hours to become hard. It does freeze hard so taking it out
the freezer 10 minutes before serving is advised. It does melt
quickly so you have to eat it fast.
Don't put any more Baileys into the mix. 1/2 a cup may not seem much
but the flavour comes through very strongly.
I prefer this with a little Baileys poured over it.
Make it and enjoy it. That is an order!
Servings: 4 servings

The History of Recipes
We can trace the history of meal recipes far back into history, in truth as far into history as the Egyptians, and maybe further still. Interesting though that maybe, sadly, these old cookbooks were just very basic pictorial recipes for preparing meals.
In fact, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history are a few ancient tablets in ancient Sumerian which recount the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel exhilarated and blissful. Later on, we find two interesting recipe books from the 14th Century - a book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, they are nothing to do with the indian curry that is popular today, but instead accounts of the types of meals prepared for the rich and powerful. Later on in the 1400s, people returning from the crusades brought back many new foods, spices and herbs from Arab cuisine, including coriander, parsley, and rosemary. These new spices and herbs was responsible for an outbreak in recipe books, many of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. For the next few years, the powerful and rich houses tried to offer the best banquets, and because of this the best cooks and their recipes increased in prestige. Even so, it was during the 1800s that cookery and recipe collections reached a high level of popularity. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, spent years to collecting, verifying, and publishing recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. The introduction of the TV gave us celebrity TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to access massive numbers of recipes such as those found on this web site. |
We hope you enjoy this Baileys Ice Cream recipe.
