Steps:
- 1. Pour the milk and cream into a large saucepan and heat gently, stirring occasionally, until the mixture begins to steam but not boil.
- 2. Meanwhile, whisk the egg yolks in a heatproof bowl until smooth. Add 1/3 cup of the sugar and whisk until pale and slightly fluffy. Gradually and slowly, pour the hot milk into the egg mixture while whisking continuously to prevent the eggs from scrambling. Return the mixture to the saucepan and place over low heat, stirring frequently, until the custard thinly coats the back of a wooden spoon. Do not let boil.
- 3. Pour back into the bowl and set aside for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cooled to room temperature. For more rapid chilling, fill a sink halfway with cold water and ice and place the bowl of mixture in it for 20 minutes. Never put the hot mixture into the refrigerator.
- 4. Put the pumpkin, cinnamon, vanilla extract, remaining sugar, and a dash of rum, if using, into a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Add to the chilled custard and whisk well. Pour the mixture into an ice cream machine and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- 5. When the churning is completed, use a spoon or spatula to scrape the ice cream into a freezer-proof container with a lid. Freeze until it reaches the correct scooping texture (at least 2 hours). Dust each portion with a little ground cinnamon before serving.

SPICED CREAM
Steps:
- Beat the cream with an electric mixer on high speed in a large mixing bowl for about 2 minutes. Add the sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg and beat again until the mixture thickens and forms stiff peaks, another 1 to 2 minutes.
Tips:
- Use fresh pumpkin puree: Homemade pumpkin puree has a richer flavor than canned puree. To make your own, simply roast a pumpkin until tender, then scoop out the flesh and puree it in a blender or food processor.
- Don't overcook the pumpkin: Overcooked pumpkin will lose its flavor and become mushy. Roast the pumpkin for just until it is tender enough to easily pierce with a fork.
- Use a good quality ice cream maker: A good ice cream maker will help you achieve a smooth, creamy texture. If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can still make this recipe by freezing the pumpkin mixture in a covered container and stirring it every few hours until it is frozen solid.
- Add your favorite spices: The spices in this recipe can be adjusted to your taste. You can add more or less cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger, or you can even try adding other spices like cardamom or cloves.
- Serve immediately or store in the freezer: This ice cream is best served immediately, but it can also be stored in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
Conclusion:
This spiced pumpkin ice cream is a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for fall. It is easy to make and can be customized to your taste. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
