Avocado Ice Cream

I haven't done this in a while but I couldn't resist.

Avocado Ice Cream

Ingredients:
1/2 pint (250ml) double (heavy) cream
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3/4 pint (375ml) milk
3 ripe avocados

Take the avocados, peel and seed them then put into a blender with the milk and make a purée. Pour the purée into a mixing bowl, add the sugar, lemon juice and cream and beat until creamy. Then transfer the complete mixture into an ice cream maker and follow the manufacturer's instructions.
