Sour Cream Ice Cream...

Ingredients:

1 cup sour cream (Daisy brand NOT light)
2 cups half and half
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp vanilla

Whiz in blender until smooth. Chill in refrigerator for at least an hour. Freeze according to your ice cream freezing device's directions. Transfer to a freezer safe container and freeze until firm. Yum.

Some variations I plan to try, eventually:

Brown sugar instead of regular sugar.
1 tsp vanilla extract, 1/2 tsp almond extract.
Almond milk in place of part of the half and half.
Caramelize sugar, add half and half, stir until smooth, chill until cold, use in place of part or all of the plain half and half.
Caramel sauce swirled in at the last minute.
Chocolate sauce swirled in at the last minute.
