Coffee Ice Cream
Let the kids have their ice cream. This one is all yours!
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup Hiland Whole Milk
- 1 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Cheatwoods Honey
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup Not Your Average Joe Coffee
- 6 egg yolks
- 2 1/2 cups Hiland Heavy Cream
- 1 1/2 teaspoon Griffins Vanilla
- Bring 1 1/2 cups water to a boil using a small sauce pan. Remove from heat, add the coffee and let it set until cool. Strain through a coffee filter. (A press pot works well, but the water needs to come to a boil.) Reserve 1 cup of this liquid for the ice cream.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, sugar, honey, salt and coffee. Warm over medium heat stirring occasionally until steaming. Reduce the heat to low.
- Lightly beat the egg yolks in a small bowl. Slowly pour half the hot milk into the eggs while whisking continuously. Return the mixture to the pot, and cook over medium heat, whisking constantly throughout the process, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap on surface of the ice cream. Refrigerate until cold.
- When ready to make the ice cream, whisk the cream and vanilla into the ice cream until smooth. Churn in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
