    No Churn Ice-Cream is an easy frozen dessert 

    I'm almost embarrassed to admit how very easy this is to put together.

    Almost . . . but not quite.

    How can I  keep this very delicious ice cream to myself? And really, who has to know how very easy a dessert this is? After all, it's just between friends, right??

    Cherry Almond Amaretto is an ideal frozen dessert to serve at Christmas or Valentines Day.

    No- Churn Ice Cream is versatile

    I have another no-churn ice cream I'd made around Thanksgiving that I planned to post. But after tasting this rich, creamy dessert, I had to hurry and share this recipe.

    This dessert is a delightful addition during the Christmas season.

    In fact, I think Cherry Amaretto No-Churn Ice Cream would even make an elegant Valentine's Day dessert -- just drizzle a little chocolate on top if you want to make it even more special. Yum!

    Ingredients

    • 1 can cherry pie filling
    • 1 can sweetened condensed milk not evaporated
    • ½ cup shaved almonds lightly toasted
    • 2 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
    • 1 teaspoon almond extract
    • ¼ cup amaretto liqueur
    • Chill the bowl and beaters before whipping the cream

    Instructions

    • Mix the cherry pie filling, the sweetened condensed milk, almond extract and liqueur in a bowl and chill.
    • Whip the cream in the chilled bowl with the chilled beaters until you get stiff peaks.
    • Using the same beaters slightly whip the chilled cherry ingredients. You don't want to break up all of the cherries.
    • Fold the cherry ingredients into the whipped cream until blended. Don't mix! Fold! Once it is mixed through add the cooled toasted almonds. Put in containers and freeze. Makes about 2 quarts ice cream.

            Yes, you could make it with fresh cherries. I would first break down the cherries by making the fruit into pie filling. Perhaps adding some sugar to the cherries and gently cooking them a bit. I believe it would be delicious. Let us know how it goes.xoxo

        The simplicity of this gorgeous pink ice cream is mind boggling -- and that can of cherry pie filling (my personal favorite) is calling my name. I've made cherry amaretto ice cream before --making a custard, chilling it, pulling out the ice cream maker and churning. It's not a quick process, so I really appreciate this oh-so-much-easier method.

        Oh my gosh, this looks fantastic and it's so easy. I love this, I didn't know you could do this without churning. I bet my daughter would be all over this. I'm going to sent this to her. Maybe I can get her to make some for me;P

        I do a cherry, almond, amaretto sauce for fish sometimes.. so I KNOW those flavors are perfect together! And wow- I could eat a whole bowl of this. (Or two!) I love how easy it is to make- YUM!

        Amaretto in ice cream - brilliant!! It's my favorite liquor and a couple years ago, my fiance bought me a HUGE bottle. I haven't even opened it because I haven't worked my way through the previous big bottle he bought me lol.....I can't wait to try it in this ice cream!

        We tend not to eat a lot of ice cream in the cold months. This, however, sounds delicious for the upcoming holiday season. You can never go wrong with alcohol in ice cream....I will just have to make an extra batch for the kids.

        Hi Marisa, You can’t go wrong when you have amaretto and cherry in the same recipe......so yummy! As for your question about Christmas gift wrapping with theme......Yes, I’ve been doing that since my high school years....What a flashback????seems like yesterday. Now, I select a new Christmas wrap ( color coordinated) every year for each person.....No more name tags!

        When is your next video? Wish we lived closer so we could Christmas bake together????. My grandsons remind me often it won’t be long before we can start traditional gingerbread house and gingerbread men.

        It feels like it's been weeks since I've visited. Sigh. My computer FREAKED out when my husband downloaded the new Windows 10 . . . and decided NOT to function for several days. So happy that it's working again!
        Ok, so let's talk cherry almond amaretto no churn ice cream! I'm obsessed!! It looks and sounds AMAZING!
        I can't wait to try this version!
        You've inspired me . . . I would LOVE to try a version with maraschino cherries and chocolate chunks! That's an all-time favorite combination of mine :0)
        So happy to have found your no churn ice cream recipe!

It was great!! I used Whipped cream vodka for the alcohol part and I added apple pie spice and some vanilla extract. Our boys loved it!! I would have used just a teensy bit more apple pie spice. I love using the pie filling!! Anyway, this is between you and me 😉

          The amaretto adds flavor to the ice cream as well as helping to prevent it from freezing too hard. If you don't want to add alcohol to the ice cream you can substitute Italian soda syrup in the amaretto flavor or instead of just 1 teaspoon of almond extract, add 2 teaspoons of the extract. That should get you the wonderful almond flavor. Give it a taste and add more of the extract if you like a stronger taste.
