Peach Ice Cream

 The texture of this is like frozen custard.  I think I would add even more peaches though.

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup whole milk (I used half-and-half)
4 large egg yolks
salt
2 cups fresh peaches (about 4 of them), peeled, pitted, and pureed
1 cup half-and-half
1 cup whipping cream
1 t. vanilla extract

Directions:

1.  In medium saucepan, whisk together sugar, milk, egg yolks, and a pinch of salt.  Place pan on medium-high heat, and whisk until mixture comes to a simmer.  Lower heat to medium and whisk mixture 5 minutes, or until it begins to thicken.  Strain into large bowl, then whisk in peaches, half-and-half, cream, and vanilla.  Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 2 hours, or until chilled.

2.  Pour mixture into ice cream maker; process according to manufacturer's instructions.
