- 1 1/2 pounds ripe peaches
- 1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- About 2/3 cup sugar

- In a bowl, with a potato masher or fork, coarsely mash remaining peaches with 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice and 1/3 cup sugar. Set container in ice water and stir often until cold, about 5 minutes. Add to half-and-half mixture; taste, and add more sugar if desired.

- Serve ice cream softly frozen, or package airtight and freeze up to 1 week; let stand at room temperature 10 to 20 minutes to soften for scooping.
