In a mixing bowl combine milk, cream, sugar, vanilla extract, and Amaretto.
With a hand blender on low setting, blend until sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes.
Pour the cream mixture into the bowl of an ice cream machine.
Run machine for 25 minutes.
Turn machine off, and add cherries and their juice.
Run machine for a further 5 minutes, until cherries are combined and ice cream is slightly pink.
Serve immediately for a soft serve ice cream, or put into a freezer safe container with a lid and freeze.
Notes
30 minutes of the indicated prep time is ice cream machine time.A cherry pitter is nice to have if you are processing a lot of cherries like in this recipe. They are inexpensive and easy to use.[eafl id="14262" name="Ice Cream Maker" text="Affiliate HTML Code 'Ice Cream Maker'"] [eafl id="14190" name="Cherry Pitter" text="Affiliate HTML Code 'Cherry Pitter'"] [eafl id="14263" name="Ice Cream Scoop" text="Affiliate HTML Code 'Ice Cream Scoop'"] [eafl id="14264" name="Ice Cream Dishes" text="Affiliate HTML Code 'Ice Cream Dishes'"] [eafl id="14268" name="Hand Mixer" text="Affiliate HTML Code 'Hand Mixer'"]
