Peach Ice Cream

Last year I purchased a Cuisinart Ice Cream maker.I love it. It sits on the countertop and it makes making ice cream a treat.Today I bought fresh peaches and had every intention of making a peach cobbler for dessert.But after thinking about it,and knowing that I had to run two kids to vacation bible school and run by the post office, I decided to make a batch of peach ice cream for the boys .Glad I did.It was rich,creamy and very peaches-and-cream. One of the best homemade ice creams I have made.
