Nancy'S Fabulous Ice Cream

• 1 pint or 1 pound of fresh fruit
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup water
• 3/4 cup cold heavy cream

1. 1. Remove pits, peel etc. from fruit
2. 2. Put the fruit in food processor with sugar. Let the blades spin for a few moments. Then add 1/4 cup water and 1/2 cup heavy cream and finish pureeing.
3. 3, Whip the 1/4 cup remaining heavy cream until it thickens a little, but not to the density of whipped cream.
4. 4. Put the pureed fruit into a bowl and fold in cream. Put the bowl into the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
5. 5. Place the mixture in your ice-cream maker and proceed, following the manufacturer's instructions.
6. When done it will be rather soft, but ready to eat all the same. If you like it firmer, put it in a plastic container with a tight sealing lid and leave it in the freezer for 3-4 hours.
7. If preparing it much longer in advance, let it soften in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
8. It tastes best when soft.
