Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup malt powder
- 1 cup brownie chunks
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine heavy cream, whole milk, and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until sugar completely dissolves and mixture is smooth.
- Remove pan from heat and whisk in vanilla extract and malt powder until fully incorporated, ensuring no lumps remain. Allow mixture to cool to room temperature.
- Transfer the cooled cream mixture to a large mixing bowl and refrigerate for 2-3 hours until thoroughly chilled. This helps develop a richer flavor and ensures proper freezing.
- Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer's instructions, typically 20-25 minutes, until mixture reaches a soft-serve consistency.
- During the last 5 minutes of churning, gently fold in brownie chunks, allowing them to distribute evenly throughout the ice cream.
- Transfer the churned ice cream to a freezer-safe container, using a spatula to spread evenly and create a smooth top.
- Cover the container with plastic wrap or lid and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow ice cream to firm up completely.
- Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 3-5 minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping.
Tips
- Chill Out: Make sure your cream mixture is completely cold before churning. This ensures a smoother, creamier texture and helps prevent ice crystals.
- Malt Powder Magic: Sift your malt powder before adding to prevent any stubborn lumps in your mixture.
- Brownie Prep: Use slightly cooled, day-old brownies for the best texture. Cut them into small, uniform chunks for even distribution.
- Ice Cream Maker Hack: If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can still make this recipe by freezing the mixture and stirring every hour to break up ice crystals.
- Storage Tip: Store your ice cream in an airtight container with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface to prevent freezer burn.
- Serving Suggestion: Let the ice cream sit for 3-5 minutes before serving to achieve the perfect scoopable consistency.
