When You Can’t Have The Real Thing
When I was growing up, I don’t remember any of us ever having the option of having pareve ice cream. How lucky we are today that we can enjoy all the different flavors that are available today. Many of us choose to purchase pareve ice cream in our local stores. For those of you who prefer to make this delicacy on your own, here are some great recipes you can try:
Neapolitan Ice Cream
Vanilla:
2 eggs separated
1 small carton pareve dessert whip
4 tablespoons sugar
Whip the two egg whites until stiff. Beat parve whip until stiff and then add egg yolks and sugar. Beat for two minutes and fold in beaten egg whites. Spread out on a foil lined cookie sheet. Place in freezer.
Chocolate:
2 eggs separated
1 small carton pareve dessert whip
6 tablespoons sugar
3-4 tablespoons cocoa
Prepare in the same manner as the vanilla ice cream, adding cocoa. Spread out on foil lined cookie sheet and freeze.
Strawberry:
2 eggs separated
