1/2 cup of powdered sugar (adjust your sugar to the sweetness of your cherries. Not rocket science.)
6 oz of cream cheese
1/3 cup sour cream
1 1/4 cups of heavy cream
1/4 cup milk
1/3 cup lime juice (lemon is okay too- I just happened to have limes here.)
The zest of 2 limes. (lemons are okay too... see above.)
1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
About 6 graham crackers (I like honey grahams. You use what you like.) 3 tbs of melted butter. Put these two things in a processor. If you have graham cracker crumbs already just use about 1/2-3/4 cup of those. I just can't seem to find ready made crumbs near me for blood or money.
The point is, mix the crumbs and the melted butter so the crumbs kind of cling together. This is important, because if you don't add the butter, the crumbs kinda just become "dirt." The butter holds them together and will create a swirl if you do it right, and all the planets align. Divide the cut cherries in half. Use half in the ice cream base. Put 1/2 of the cherries, and all the other ingredients in a blender. Turn the blender on. Create ice cream base. Put base into ice cream machine. Make food, according to manufacturer's instructions. Right near the end of the process, add the other half of the cherries.
At the very end, when you only have a couple of turns of the blades left, pour the crumbs in a steady stream into the ice cream maker. Do not overmix the crumbs. You want a ribbon, not the crumbs to mix all over the place. Gently transfer the ice cream to whatever you intend to freeze it solid in. Again, don't stir it too much or you'll blow the texture.

How To Cook Pizza
I tried this recipe last night and the result was fabulous. Now to make pizza you don’t need oven. You can simply make it in pan on your regular stove and result is same as like the baked pizza.
For Dough
For Dough
- 2 1/2 cup flour
- 2 tsp yeast
- 2 pinch sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1-2 tbsp olive or cooking oil
- 1-2 tbsp oil
- 1 clove garlic, chopped
- 1 onion, sliced
- 500 gm tomatoes, chopped
- 2 pinch oregano
- 2 pinch sugar
- Salt to taste
- 150 gm boneless chicken
- Salt to taste
- 2 tbsp chili sauce
- 2 spring onions with leaves, chopped
- 2 tomatoes without seeds, chopped
- 1 capsicum, chopped
- 8-10 olives
- 5 mushrooms, chopped
- 1/2 tsp red chili flakes
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, grated
- 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, grated
- For dough, just mix all the ingredients and knead them with water. Put it in room temperature covered for 3-4 hours till it becomes double in its size.
- For sauce, sauté onion and garlic in oil, add spices and tomatoes. Cook it for 2-3 minutes and then blend it in blender. You can also store this sauce in refrigerator. I also added the red chili flakes in sauce.
- Fry the chicken in oil than add little water and cook till the chicken is done. Add chili sauce and salt in it. Remove from heat and add all vegetables in it. Add red chili flakes and 1/2 tsp oregano in it and mix it well.
- Now make a round pizza base from dough with the help of rolling pin. Preheat the pan on stove. Put the pizza base in pan and cover it, cook it on low flame for 2-3 minutes.
- Now take out the base from pan and apply the pizza sauce on other side, which is already cooked.
- Put chicken and vegetable mixture on it and then sprinkle both cheese on it.
- Put it in pan again and cook it covered for 15 minutes or till the pizza leaves the pan.
