A Little Less Ice, A Little More Cream

Well, my reign as Dessert Maker Supreme ended last night.
I've been on a dessert kick lately. First it was Eclair Cake (yum), then Peanut Butter Cream Pie (magnifico) and on Monday I attempted to make homemade Peach Ice Cream. I brought the ice cream over to my friend's for dinner and as the moment-of-truth arrived I was disappointed in the texture. It was more like frozen juice than actual ice cream. Granted, I don't own an ice cream maker so all the stirring was done with a mixer but I still anticipated greatness. After all, my two prior attempts at dessert were pretty remarkable, if I must say so myself.
Plan of Action: make another dessert as soon as possible to boost my culinary self-esteem.
