Peanut Butter Ice Cream
Peanut Butter Ice Cream tastes like the inside of a peanut butter cup, transformed into cold and creamy homemade ice cream.
Ingredients
Ice Cream Ingredients
- 2⁄3 cup creamy peanut butter
- 3⁄4 cup light brown sugar
- 1⁄4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 1⁄3 cups milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Peanut Butter Swirl Ingredients
- 1⁄3 cup creamy peanut butter
- 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
Instructions
- Stir together the peanut butter, brown sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl. Stir in the cream and whisk smooth. Slowly add the milk and vanilla, whisking until smooth. Pour into the ice cream machine and freeze according to the manufacturer's directions.
- While the ice cream is churning, warm 1⁄3 cup peanut butter in the microwave for about 1 minute. Stir until smooth and liquid. Slowly add the powdered sugar, whisking smooth. Set aside.
- When the ice cream finishes churning, transfer half of the ice cream to an airtight container and drizzle with half of the peanut butter mixture. Repeat the layers and swirl with a knife just a couple of times to mix throughout.
- Cover with a lid and place in the freezer until firm enough to scoop. For an even more amazing treat, drizzle with chocolate sauce or hot fudge when ready to serve.
Notes
I usually figure a batch of homemade ice cream to be 5-6 servings. However, this is very rich ice cream and we tend to enjoy it in smaller portions.
