Time 5h45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/2 teaspoon rum flavoring
1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling
1 cup pitted fresh sweet cherries
1/3 cup miniature chocolate chip
1/3 cup slivered almonds, toasted (see note)

Steps:

  • Combine heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk and rum flavoring in a large bowl; mix well. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • Lightly grease inside of a 9 x 5 x 3-inch baking pan. Cut a piece of plastic wrap 24-inches long. Line bottom and sides of pan with plastic wrap so that several inches of wrap overhang each long side.
  • Remove cream mixture from refrigerator. Beat with electric mixer on high speed 3 to 4 minutes or until soft peaks form. Do not overbeat.
  • Fold in cherry pie filling, fresh sweet cherries, chocolate chips and almonds. Spoon mixture evenly into lined pan. Cover and freeze at least 5 hours or overnight.
  • To serve: quickly dip pan in hot water, immersing just the bottom and halfway up sides to help release ice cream. Using overhanging plastic wrap for handles, gently remove spumoni from pan and transfer to serving plate.
  • Remove plastic wrap by lifting spumoni with metal spatula. Cut crosswise into slices and serve immediately.
  • Note: To toast almonds, put them in a large skillet over medium heat. Toast 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until light brown. Set aside to cool.

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup milk
3/4 cup sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup half and half
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
3 tablespoons tart cherry concentrate (see note)
1/2 cup (packed) frozen, pitted tart (sour) or sweet cherries, defrosted, or pitted tart or sweet canned cherries (do not use fresh fruit)
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons slivered or sliced blanched almonds
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons chopped semisweet chocolate or chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Place milk in a small heavy-bottom saucepan over medium heat until bubbles just begin to form around edge of pan. Remove from heat, and add sugar and salt. Stir until dissolved.
  • Add half and half, heavy cream, vanilla extract, almond extract and cherry concentrate. Mix well. Transfer to a bowl, and set in an ice water bath until cool, about 10 minutes.
  • Coarsely chop cherries, and press between paper towels to remove excess liquid. Add to chilled milk mixture. Begin freezing in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. When ice cream has begun to thicken, after about 10 minutes, add almonds and chopped chocolate. Continue freezing until ice cream is very thick.
