Rich, creamy and silky-smooth, this cherry mascarpone ice cream is bursting with sweet cherries, an indulgent treat you will love! Mascarpone is such a versatile ingredient.  Most people think of using it for tiramisu, but you can substitute it for cream cheese if you like, for recipes such as my Air Fryer Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls. Strawberry Mascarpone Tart, and Air Fryer Peach Cobbler Egg Rolls.  This ice cream was out of this world, and I had planned on making it plain. However, I had some fresh cherries on hand, so I decided to throw them in, which brought this dessert to a whole other level! For this recipe, I used my Pampered Chef For this recipe, I used our Ice Cream Maker, Cup Slicer and Classic Batter Bowl: Ice Cream Maker Our compact Ice Cream Maker lets you create your favorite frozen treats any time you want. Use fresh, natural ingredients to mix up smooth, custom-flavored ice cream, custard, frozen yogurt, sorbet, sherbet, and even frozen drinks.

Just push a button to set the timer, add your ingredients, and you’ll have a frozen treat in 45 minutes or less—you can even peek through the clear lid to see it come together! Cover the bowl with the stretchy silicone lid to store it for later. Details

Cup Slicer

Snacking Made Simple

Slice fresh fruits and veggies fast with the Cup Slicer. Just put your food on a cutting board and place the Cup Slicer, which features five stainless steel serrated blades, above the food.

And when you’re done using it, run it through the dishwasher and place the blade cover on it for safe storage. With the Cup Slicer, you can slice up strawberries, bananas, grape tomatoes, mushrooms, or hard-boiled eggs for a quick snack. It’s a great tool for parents!

Click the links to get your Ice Cream Maker,  Cup Slicer, and Classic Batter Bowl today. You’ll be glad you did. Let’s jump right in! IngredientsFor the Cherries

  • 12-ounces cherries, pitted and stemmed (can substitute frozen)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar

For the Custard

  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 8-ounces Mascarpone cheese
  • ½ teaspoon Vanilla extract

Instructions

For the Cherries Remove stems and pit cherries.

Slice the cherries with the Cup Slicer, place in a mixing bowl.

Add the lemon juice and sugar, toss gently to combine. Cover and refrigerate to allow flavors to meld and juices to develop.

For the Custard

Separate egg yolks from egg whites (save egg whites for another use).  Whisk yolks with the sugar until pale yellow in color; set aside.

Pour heavy cream and milk into a saucepan, stirring to combine. Heat just until bubbles begin to form – do NOT bring to a boil. 

Add ¼ cup of hot mixture into the yolk/sugar mixture, whisking quickly to temper the yolks.  Continue adding ¼ cup of the hot mixture until completely incorporated into the yolks. 

Pour the combined mixture back into pan, heat over medium-low heat until thickened.  You will know it’s ready when custard leaves a line that is not dripping on the back of spoon.

Pour the custard mixture into Classic Batter Bowl, cover and place in an ice bath or refrigerator, until mixture reaches 45⁰F/7⁰C.

Once chilled, whisk in the mascarpone cheese and vanilla extract to the custard mixture until fully incorporated.

Remove the bowl of the ice cream maker from the freezer and attach the assembled clear lid to the bowl.  Set the timer for 30 minutes.  Once the paddle starts rotating, pour the mixture into the bowl. When the Ice Cream Maker stops turning, check the doneness. The mixture should be a soft serve consistency.  If needed, add more time until the desired consistency is reached.

Stir the cherries and developed juices into the ice cream. Serve immediately for soft serve, or cover and store in the freezer if you like hard ice cream.

This classic Cherry Clafoutis recipe combines sweet cherries in a creamy custard-like cake that is easy to make and very delicious! I found this recipe on Delish, and I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again – Delish has a TON of amazing recipes, including the one I’m featuring today! I gave their unlimited membership a try last year, so I am speaking from my own (read: they are not paying me for this review) experiences. The membership cost me $20 for the year, and it includes a wonderful year-long subscription to their quarterly magazine filled with delicious (and easy!) recipes, unlimited access to Delish recipes, members-only access to a one-on-one hotline to ask for help from their food editors, and other wonderful bonuses. You can learn more about their membership here; this is a code I found online, as I believe the normal cost is $35/year, but this code looks like you can still get it for $20/year, which is great! I have found it to be extremely useful, although I have not yet taken advantage of their hotline – yet.

For this recipe, I used my Stone Pie Plate and Deluxe Cooking Blender:

Cherry Basil Galette – (Video)

Fresh, juicy cherries combined with basil creates a beautiful galette that is the perfect dessert for summer!

If you had told me I would EVER pair basil with fruit, I would have thought you did not know me well.  Before this recipe, basil was for very specific recipes, such as Italian pasta dishes or certain Thai dishes.  That all changed with this recipe for a cherry basil galette, which was born for me when I saw Pampered Chef’s new recipe for a Strawberry Galette, only I did not have any fresh strawberries.

I used our Cherry & Olive Pitter to remove the pits, which makes quick work of it, since I can remove 4 pits at the same time! Here’ s some info:

Pit Four Fruits at One Time

If you love fresh cherries and olives, but not the mess or the time it takes to remove the pits, this handy tool quickly pits four cherries at once without bruising or wasting any of the fruit. The clear bottom tray catches all the juice and pits, mess-free. And the non-slip feet keep it in place while you zip through. The top locks to make it easy to store in a drawer.

Olive Pitter

We’ve included an extra insert so you can also pit smaller olives.

The basil truly enhanced the flavor of the cherries, and it was unlike any dessert I’ve previously had.  Mind you, I have been a picky eater, and I realize that this may not be a new dessert for many of you.  However, I am quite proud of myself for giving this a try, and I hope you’ll make this and let me know what you think.  Let’s jump right in!

Ingredients

  • 1 lb fresh cherries, stems and pits removed
  • 3 tbsp sugar, plus more for sprinkling
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons torn basil leaves (about 5 basil leaves), plus more for garnishing
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 pkg (15 oz) refrigerated pie crust (1 crust), softened according to package directions OR homemade piecrust
  • 2-3 tablespoons softened butter, cubed
  • 1   egg, beaten
  • Optional: ice cream or whipped cream

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Remove the stem from the cherries, and use the Cherry & Olive Pitter to remove pits.

Combine the cherries, sugar, cornstarch, basil, and lime juice; toss gently to combine. Let the mixture stand for 3–4 minutes.

Unroll the pie crust and place it on the Cast Iron Sizzle Skillet.

Pour the cherry mixture into the center of the pie crust, leaving about 2″ (5 cm) uncovered around the edge. Fold the outer edge of the crust over the filling, overlapping every 2″ (5 cm) to form an even border. Pinch the pleats to seal.

Add the butter on top of the filling. Brush the crust with egg wash and sprinkle with additional sugar.

Bake for 28–30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Let it cool on the skillet for 20 minutes before serving. Top with additional basil and serve with ice cream and/or whipped cream, if you’d like.

That’s it!  My family really enjoyed this dessert, it so perfect for summer.  Please let me know if you give this a try, and if you have a similar recipe, please do share. I would love to hear from you!
