I usually don't make ice cream recipe that require cooking the mix. this one turned out great. I took it to a friends house and they argued over who was taking the left overs. will definitely make it again.

This is the best ice cream, of any flavor, I've ever had in my (over half-century) life! Other than scaling the recipe down to fit my ice cream machine, I did not change anything. This recipe has got it just right. Because the thin custard uses a little flour, it is not too eggy. The peach flavor is just wonderful. I made it up in the evening, chilled it well in the refrigerator, and froze it the next day. If you have good peaches, try this. You'll thank me. But first, I have to thank Nurse Di.

Why would you put wheat flour in ice cream? People with celiac disease would eat it and get sick. I would suggest when you do make it, you tell any guests what it contains. I would never think ice cream would be on my endangered list.

Wow!!! I am so excited I found this ice cream! I made it tonight (for the weekend) and I will definitely be making it again! I love recipes that ask for me to cook the ice cream because it always seems to be richer. :) Thanks so much for the recipe!

This recipe is great!!! We have made it 4 times this summer so far. We used fresh Oregon strawberries and used 1/2&1/2 instead of the milk. Update: Made it again Sept.1 with Veteran peaches. Wonderful! Thank you for another great recipe.
