Even better.These recipes from QVC's David Venable are just too tempting.Peaches and cream"Nothing can top this summertime treat!," says Venable. "If fresh peaches are available, they'll give your ice cream even more flavor just make sure they give slightly when squeezed. They should also have a deep, profound peachy smell."Venable says if you're in a hurry to make this treat, you can speed up ripening your peaches by placing the ones that are not quite ready into a paper bag with a banana.David's Homemade SummerPeach Ice CreamServes 4-64 cups frozen peaches, defrosted (or fresh if available)1 (9.6-ounce) can peach nectarOne-quarter cup sweetened condensed milkOne-half cup heavy creamOne-quarter cup whole milk1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin1 teaspoon lemon juicePurée 3 cups of the peaches with peach nectar in a food processor until smooth.Add the peach purée, sweetened condensed milk, heavy cream, and milk to a medium-size sauce pan; stir to combine.Place 3 tablespoons of the peach mixture in a small bowl.

Fit a stand mixer with a paddle attachment and beat the butter and both of the sugars until the mixture is light and creamy. Add the egg and vanilla extract and stir until fully incorporated.Add the flour mixture, in batches, and mix well after each addition. Add the chocolate chunks and mix until evenly distributed. Spoon the dough onto the cookie sheets. (Each cookie should be made with 2 tablespoons of dough.)Bake for 12 minutes and place the sheets on cooling racks. Once the cookies have cooled completely, turn half of them flat-side-up.To assemble the sandwiches, remove the ice cream from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature until it softens slightly. Scoop about cup of ice cream onto each flat-sided cookie and then gently top the ice cream with a second cookie. Insert a popsicle stick into the ice cream. Carefully place the sandwich back onto the cookie sheets. Freeze them overnight.Carefully, stirring often, melt the semi-sweet chips in a double boiler or microwave. Let the chocolate cool for a minute so as not to melt the ice cream. Next, lay one of the frozen sandwiches into the chocolate. Flip it with a spatula and coat the other side. When the sandwich is completely coated, place it back into the freezer while you coat the other sandwiches.If you'd like to decorate the sandwiches, melt the white chocolate in a double boiler or microwave. Pour the chocolate into a piping bag fitted with a small plain tip. Pipe a design onto each chocolate covered ice cream sandwich. Serve cold.
