BRANDIED PEACH ICE

Category: Frozen Desserts

2 cups ripe, peeled and chopped peaches
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons brandy, divided
2 cups light cream
2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
1/4 cup cold water
1 cup heavy cream, whipped

Mix peaches and sugar and let stand 30 minutes. Force mixture through a sieve, add 1 tablespoon brandy and stir in the cream.

Sprinkle gelatin over the cold water. Stir into the peaches and cream mixture. Pour into molds or refrigerator trays, cover with foil and place in freezer. While still soft, beat twice in half-hour intervals to reduce size of the crystals.

Whip the heavy cream, add the remaining tablespoon brandy and fold the whipped cream into the ice after the last beating. Return to freezer. Remove from freezer about 20 minutes before serving. Beat once more and pile into 8 champagne glasses. Makes 8 servings.
