ICE CREAM EGGNOG



Ice Cream Eggnog image

Here's a festive eggnog for the holidays-get to it quickly before the ice cream melts.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 quarts vanilla ice cream
1 3/4 cups half-and-half
3/4 cup Bourbon
1/4 cup orange liqueur, such as Cointreau
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
Grated nutmeg

Steps:

  • In a blender, combine 1 quart ice cream, half-and-half, Bourbon, orange liqueur, and orange zest. Blend until smooth. To serve, pour into a punch bowl, scoop 1/2 quart ice cream on top, and sprinkle with nutmeg.

Tips:

  • To make the smoothest ice cream, use an ice cream maker with a built-in freezer bowl. If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can still make this recipe, but the ice cream will be slightly less smooth.
  • If you don't have heavy cream, you can substitute milk or half and half. However, the ice cream will be less rich and creamy.
  • Don't overbeat the ice cream mixture. If you overbeat it, the ice cream will be too thick and icy.
  • Let the ice cream harden in the freezer for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to fully develop.
  • Serve the ice cream with your favorite toppings, such as whipped cream, chocolate chips, or nuts.

Conclusion:

Eggnog ice cream is a delicious and festive holiday dessert. It's easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you're serving it at a party or just enjoying it at home, this ice cream is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this eggnog ice cream recipe a try.
