This is very good ice cream. As a cherry fanatic, I have to admit I was disappointed - not by the ice cream, but by the cherries I had. Any fruit flavored ice cream relies on the quality of the fruit. Unfortunately, my cherries just didn't have a lot of flavor. I was able to solve the problem to a certain extent by adding some cherry extract. I am looking forward to the time when I have a lot of really good cherries, which I know will shine in this. Thank you for posting this recipe.

The third recipe in our Cuisinart 4th of July ice cream marathon. I had a bag of bing cherries on hand which weren't exactly fine snacking quality (not quite hard & sweet enough to suit me).
Ah ha..we turned them into “ice cream bait”, and no complaints were registered.
This wasn't the easiest recipe we tried because of the cooked custard and hand pitting the cherries. Make use of disposable gloves! It took much longer than 5 minutes to bring to "bubbling edge stage." I also used the whole 8 oz. package of cream cheese, as I'm always puzzled by recipes not utilizing standard packaging. I don't think it suffered from the addition in the least, as my houseguests awarded our Blue Ribbon to the Bing Cherry Special, (closely beating out Lemon Fluff & Strawberry Gelato) before they waddled out to their vehicles and drove away into the sunset.
Don’t let this go to your head, Sea Horse!

This is really yummy! I made it for a birthday party (served it with chocolate cake #31804) and it was a huge hit. Thanks!
