Ginger peach cheesecake ice cream
Cheesecakes

My best childhood memories involve standing around my grandma's homemade ice cream maker at family gatherings. <br /> <br />She'd pack the ice and salt around the canister, plug it in, and we'd wait...and wait...and wait...for what seemed like an eternity. <br /> <br />If we were really lucky, she'd let us lick the paddle. We'd get sticky ice cream all over our faces, but we didn't care. That cool, creamy, sweet concoction felt wonderful no matter where it landed. <br /> <br />Grandma didn't experiment much with flavors. We'd get vanilla, strawberry, maybe maple nut. But it was all good. <br /> <br />Now that I have my own ice cream maker (with no salt or ice required, yay!), I spend countless days of summer drumming up new flavors. And since it's usually just me and the pups around when I make it, guess who gets to lick the paddle?! <br /> <br />I have to say that Ginger Peach Cheesecake has turned out to be one of my favorites. I love the fresh zingy ginger taste infused with the cooked peaches, mellow cream cheese and a hint of schnapp-iness. If you want even more ginger taste, substitute ginger snaps for the graham crackers. <br /> <br />Either way, I think Grandma would love it too. <br /> <br />Inspired by Sandy Smith's Cheesecake Ice Cream, from Eat Real
