Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Peaches: Thaw chopped frozen peaches in the refrigerator overnight. Mix with 1/2 cup sugar and let sit for 15-20 minutes to release juices.
  2. Blend Peaches: Reserve 1/2 cup of the peach mixture without juice. Blend remaining peaches with juice until smooth.
  3. Make Base: In a bowl, whisk together the remaining sugar, heavy cream, milk, vanilla extract, and optional peach extract until sugar dissolves. Fold in peach puree.
  4. Churn Ice Cream: Pour mixture into an ice cream maker and churn for 20-30 minutes, adding reserved peaches in the last 5 minutes.
  5. Freeze: Transfer to a freezer-friendly container, covering with plastic wrap. Freeze for about 4 hours until firm.
