3/4 cup sugar
2 cups heavy or whipping cream
1 cup milk
1 1/2 cups peanut brittle, broken into small pieces
1) Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the sugar, a little at a time, then continue whisking until completely blended, about 1 minute more. Pour in the cream and milk, and whisk to blend.
2) Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze, following the manufacturer's instructions.
3) Add the peanut brittle to the ice cream machine, when the freeze cycle has two minutes left.
Review: Yum! I thought this would be just a sweet ice cream flavor with chunks of brittle. However, the brittle splintered quite a bit and the ice cream was pretty infused with the flavor. This was sooooooo good!!
What kind of ice cream maker do you have? Do you like it?
ReplyDeleteI've been looking at some - maybe an attachment for the Kitchenaid or a separate one. I'm not sure what's best. Any suggestions?
I have a Cuisinart. http://www.amazon.com/Cuisinart-ICE-21-Frozen-Yogurt-Ice-Sorbet/dp/B003KYSLMW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1306463226&sr=8-1 Mike did a lot of research before he bought it and said this one had the best reviews, at the best price. I really like it, and it's easy to clean. :) Though, an attachment might make more sense for you, as you already have the stand mixer. I think that's what Matt/Pam use.
ReplyDeleteI just made "ice cream maker" in the instructions a link to the model I own. :)
ReplyDeleteDo you have the 2 qt. size? I was looking at those on Amazon earlier and thought it looked good. Some of the reviews for the Kitchenaid weren't good. Guess I'll do some more checking. The peanut brittle ice cream sounds amazing
ReplyDeleteYup, 2 qt size. Sometimes, with toppings, it will ooze out the top, but I just eat that with a spoon. Just for the sake of not making a mess, of course!
