Coffee Bean Ice Cream
Ingredients
- 6 egg yolks
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 cups cream
- 1 1/2 cups whole coffee beans*
Instructions
- Beat the egg yolks with the sugar until light and pale in color.
- Scald the cream with the coffee beans and pour onto the yolks and sugar, stirring until combined.
- Pour back into the saucepan and stir over a low heat until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Allow the mixture to cool leaving the whole beans in the custard.
- Allow to stand covered in the refrigerator overnight at least. A couple of days is better.
- Strain the mixture and transfer to ice cream maker. Process according to manufacturer's instructions.
Notes
* I use the most wicked, black, shiny coffee beans I can find. My favorite is Italian Roast Coffee from Trader Joe's.
