Steps:
- Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Meanwhile, prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Place peaches in boiling water for 1 to 2 minutes; remove with a slotted spoon, and cool in ice-water bath.
- Peel and pit peaches, reserving skin and pits. Slice each peach into 10 wedges, place in a nonreactive saucepan, and stir in lemon juice and 2 tablespoons sugar. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until peaches are tender and liquid has thickened slightly, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool.
- Stir peach schnapps into peach mixture. Transfer to the bowl of a food processor, and pulse to a chunky puree, 10 to 15 pulses; set aside.
- In a large saucepan set over high heat, bring milk, cream, peach skins, and pits to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low; simmer 5 minutes. Cover, and let stand 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, combine egg yolks, salt, remaining sugar, and vanilla. Beat at medium-high speed until mixture is thick and pale yellow, about 3 minutes.
- Strain milk mixture into egg mixture; discard solids. Beat at low speed to combine. Cook over low heat, stirring, until mixture coats the back of a wooden spoon, 3 to 5 minutes. Pass through a sieve into a bowl set in ice-water bath. When chilled, stir in peach puree. Freeze in an ice-cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions, in 2 batches if necessary. Store in an airtight plastic container in the freezer for up to 1 week.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut 2 12-by-16-inch rectangles from parchment paper. On each piece of parchment, draw 12 circles (3 1/2 inches) with a pencil. Place each piece of parchment, pencil-side down, on a baking sheet.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar on medium-high speed until pale yellow, about 4 minutes. Add vanilla and egg whites; beat until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add flour, salt, ground ginger, and crystallized ginger. Beat on low speed until just incorporated.
- Spoon a heaping tablespoon of batter onto each circle. With back of a spoon, spread evenly to edges. Bake until cookies are golden brown around edges, about 12 minutes; rotate sheets twice during baking for even browning. Transfer sheets to wire racks to cool completely.
- When cool, spoon about 1/2 cup of peach ice cream on the bottom of a cookie. Top with another one, and press down gently, forcing ice cream to edges. Wrap in plastic, and place in freezer. Repeat with remaining cookies and ice cream. Freeze sandwiches at least 2 hours before serving.
GINGER PEACH ICE CREAM SANDWICHES
Steps:
- Set up grill for indirect cooking over medium heat (no heat source directly under cookies).
- Soften ice cream on the counter for 10 minutes. Scoop large balls of ice cream onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing about 3 inches apart. Top the scoops with another piece of parchment. Gently flatten the scoops into 2-inch disks about 1-inch thick. Put the baking sheet in the freezer to harden while making the cookies.
- In a mixing bowl, combine rest of the ingredients. Stir to form dough. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto foil baking sheet. Place foil baking sheet on another foil baking sheet (for stability and insulation) and set on grill away from heat. Cover grill and cook 12 to 16 minutes or until just baked and browned.
- Remove from grill and let cool to room temperature.
- Sandwich the ice cream disk between to cookies and wrap in parchment or waxed paper until ready to serve.
- INDOOR: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Prepare cookies as directed and drop onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 14 minutes. Cool for 1 minute on cookie sheet before transferring to wire rack. Cool cookie completely, and then freeze for a minimum of 1 hour before completing ice cream sandwiches as directed.

Steps:
- Line a quarter sheet pan or 9-by-13-inch baking pan with plastic wrap, leaving an overhang. Spread the ice cream in the pan in an even layer with an offset spatula. Freeze until very firm, about 4 hours.
- Sift the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, allspice and cloves into a large bowl. Beat the butter and brown sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating after each addition until smooth. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in the flour mixture until just combined. (If the dough seems dry, add 1 to 2 tablespoons water.) Transfer the dough to a sheet of plastic wrap, shape into a disk and wrap tightly. Refrigerate until chilled, about 20 minutes.
- Line 3 baking sheets with parchment paper. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface until about 1/8 inch thick. Cut the dough into 2-by-4-inch rectangles (a pizza cutter is great for this); you'll get about 24. Arrange on the prepared pans, about 1 1/2 inches apart, and prick each cookie with a fork a few times down the center. Freeze until firm, 15 to 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Bake the cookies, one baking sheet at a time, until golden on the bottom but still soft in the center, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool 5 minutes on the pan, then transfer the cookies to the rack to cool completely.
- Lift the ice cream out of the pan using the plastic wrap and invert onto a cutting board; discard the plastic. Working quickly, cut the ice cream into twelve 2-by-4-inch rectangles. Sandwich the ice cream between the cookies, place on a baking sheet and return to the freezer.
- Put the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until smooth. Stir in the vegetable oil. Dip each sandwich partway in the white chocolate, then sprinkle with nonpareils. Return to the baking sheet and freeze until ready to serve.

SPICED GINGER-PEACH ICE CREAM
This started as an experiment with a custard-style ice cream base and has become a requested favorite for get-togethers. The sweetness of the peach and smooth cream gets a boost from the earthy spices without being overpowering. I eat it plain but a few friends enjoy it in ice cream sandwiches.
