Posted by noah 10 months ago
After trying several different variations on this excellent recipe, we have settled on this egg-less recipe for peppermint stick ice cream:
- 1 lb finely crushed peppermint stick candy
- 4 cups whole milk
- 1 3/4 cups sugar
- 3/4 tsp. salt
- 4 tsp. vanilla extract
- 4 cups whipping cream
Start the night before, soaking the crushed candy in 2 cups of the milk. Refrigerate overnight.
2-3 hours before you are ready to start cranking: heat milk to lukewarm, add sugar and salt, stir til dissolved. Add milk and candy mixture, pour into freezer canister, and chill in your freezer.
Just before cranking, remove chilled mixture and blend to smooth (if necessary). Add vanilla and whipping cream. It should take between 20-30 minutes of cranking to complete.
