Recipe
Okay, now this is a real tough recipe, so are you ready? …
Take all of the ingredients, and mix them together in a big bowl until smooth and homogeneous.
Chill if not already cold, and process in your ice cream machine as per the manufacturer’s instructions.
Transfer into an air-tight container and freeze until solid before serving.
Whew! After all that work, this ice cream sure hits the spot!
Author's Notes: Not too keen on making a traditional pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving this year? Just make a batch of this ice cream, smooth it into a crust, and freeze until firm enough to slice. Perfect to make ahead of time, too!
