Plum Ice Cream With Plum-Cognac Sauce
- 3 cups diced ripe red or purple-skinned plums (about 6 plums)
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 1/2 cups 2% reduced-fat milk
- 2 tablespoons cognac or apple juice
- 1/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted
- Combine the plums and sugar in a medium saucepan; cook over medium heat 5 minutes or until plums are tender and sugar is dissolved. Place plum mixture in a food processor; process until smooth. Strain plum mixture through a sieve into a bowl to measure 2 1/4 cups puree, and discard solids. Cover and chill completely.
- Combine 1 1/2 cups plum puree and milk in the freezer can of an ice-cream freezer; freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. Spoon ice cream into a freezer-safe container; cover and freeze until firm (about 1 hour).
- Combine 3/4 cup plum puree and cognac in a small bowl. Spoon over ice cream, and sprinkle with slivered almonds.
