#### How to Make Homemade Cherry Ice Cream
1. **Prepare the cherries:** Cook them down with a little sugar until soft and syrupy. Puree or leave some pieces for texture.
2. **Make the ice cream base:** Whisk together the cream, milk, sugar, and vanilla until well combined.
3. **Chill the mixture:** Let it cool in the fridge for a few hours so it churns smoothly.
4. **Churn the ice cream:** Pour into your ice cream maker and let it do the magic.
5. **Freeze to firm up:** Once churned, transfer to a container and freeze for 2–4 hours for a scoopable consistency.

* Sandwich it between cookies for a summery treat.
* Pair it with brownies, pie, or pound cake.
