Classic ice cream recipes use a custard base, which means they take time, patience and skill. Fortunately, this is not one of those recipes. Our blueberry cheesecake ice cream recipe comes together in just a few simple steps and you don\u2019t need to be an expert to whip up a batch.<\/p>\n
All you\u2019ll need are fresh or frozen blueberries, a handful of pantry ingredients and a few friends or family members to save you from the temptation to eat it all by yourself.<\/p>\n
Combine the sugar and cornstarch in a small saucepan and stir in some water with a whisk or fork. Add the blueberries and lemon juice, and bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Turn down the heat and simmer for about five minutes until the mixture is slightly thickened. Refrigerate the filling until it’s chilled and the ice cream is prepared.<\/p>\n Mix the dry ingredients for the graham crust in a large bowl, stir in the melted butter and pat it into the bottom of your baking pan. Bake the crust for ten to fifteen minutes until lightly browned and set it aside to cool.<\/p>\n Whisk together the ice cream ingredients in a large bowl. Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer’s directions.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Keep half in the fridge while you turn the other portion into ice cream if the batch is too large for your ice cream maker.<\/p>\n First, crumble the graham crumb crust into your baking pan. Layer the ice cream, crust mixture and blueberry sauce into a large container with a tight-fitting lid. Swirl the layers, seal the lid and freeze your ice cream until it\u2019s fully set.<\/p>\n Your ice cream will do best when the temperature is between -18\u00b0 and 0\u00b0F and should ideally never reach a temperature higher than 0\u00b0. So if you have a chest freezer that\u2019s your best option. You can also use a heavy-duty container with a tight-fitting lid meant for freezer use.<\/p>\n All good things come to an end and sadly that\u2019s also the case with ice cream. Homemade ice cream is usually best within two to three weeks or, at most, up to a month. So, you’ll just have to eat it within that time frame (seriously, that\u2019s not a problem is it?). The colder your freezer, the longer it will last.<\/p>\n Editor\u2019s Tip:<\/i> Storing your ice cream in a freezer-safe baking dish with a lid can help extend its storage life because glass and ceramic baking dishes are less porous than plastic and provide better protection from the dry air of the freezer. It also helps if you press plastic wrap to the surface of the ice cream every time you scoop out a portion. This keeps air from making direct contact with your dessert.<\/p>\n Absolutely. The prepared fruit filling will keep nicely in your fridge for two to three days, although it may thin slightly as the berries shed some of their juices. The crumb crust can also be made ahead, and the ice cream mixture will freeze more quickly (giving you a better texture) if it\u2019s already thoroughly chilled when you pour it into the ice cream maker.<\/p>\n You can make this blueberry cheesecake ice cream recipe (and most others) without an ice cream maker, though it will probably take a little longer to freeze. Just pour it into one or more freezer-safe containers with tight-fitting lids \u2013 to prevent spills \u2013 and put them into the coldest part of your freezer. Flat, shallow containers will chill faster than deep ones, and multiple small containers freeze faster than a single large one.<\/p>\n Editor\u2019s Tip:<\/i> If you’re in the market for one, we can recommend a few of the best ice cream makers<\/a>. Ice cream made without one is still delicious, but you\u2019ll enjoy a better texture (and quicker dessert) if you have the right tool for the job.<\/p>\n Sure, why not? We have plenty of no-bake cheesecake recipes<\/a> and vanilla pudding recipes<\/a> to choose from. Just remember that the recipe was written and tested in our Test Kitchen and you may need to make some adjustments if you decide to go off-script with a fully homemade alternative. Still, if you\u2019re concerned about additives or working around a food allergy, it might be worth the effort.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" After sampling this flavor at an ice cream stand, I kept trying to duplicate it until it was just right.

Raspberries would be even better. We made sweet cream ice cream with only condensed milk and cream. It was great. No vanilla. The graham cracker crust recipe makes a lot and could be cut in half if needed. Overall though, this was an excellent dessert. Allow at least six hours of total prep time, including freezing.

I also agree with other reviewers who recommended using half a recipe of the graham cracker mixture. In fact, the next time, I may buy and break up a pre-made graham cracker crust just to save time and to eliminate heat in the oven in summer.I used a 1 quart ice cream maker (gelataio junior) and the recipe as written made 2 batches; for each, I filled the container 2\/3 full. It took about 50 minutes for each batch to freeze firm.The addition of instant pudding mix in the ice cream opens up so many possibilities for additional flavors.
