Categories     Frozen Desserts

Time 3h15m

Yield 1 quart, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups half-and-half
6 extra-large egg yolks
2/3 cup sugar
1 pinch salt
2 1/2 tablespoons ground espresso beans
1 tablespoon coffee liqueur (recommended ( Kahlua)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
4 ounces chocolate-covered coffee beans, chopped

Steps:

  • Heat the half-and-half until it forms bubbles around the edge of the pan and steam starts to rise.
  • Meanwhile, in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the egg yolks, sugar, and salt until mixed.
  • Slowly add the hot half-and-half until combined.
  • Wipe out the pan and pour the mixture back into the clean pan.
  • Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, for 5 to 10 minutes, until it's thickened and the cream coats the back of the spoon.
  • Pour the cream through a fine-meshed sieve into a bowl.
  • Add the ground espresso beans, coffee liqueur, and vanilla and refrigerate until completely chilled.
  • Pour the espresso cream into an ice-cream freezer and freeze according to the manufacturer's directions.
  • Mix in the chopped espresso beans, spoon into a container, and allow to freeze for a few hours.
  • Soften slightly before serving.

I'm not a big fan of coffee, but I really enjoyed this ice cream. The espresso flavor is subtle, and the ice cream is still very creamy and delicious. I would definitely make this again, even for non-coffee lovers.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover espresso. I had some leftover from making lattes in the morning, and I was looking for a way to use it up. This ice cream was the perfect solution. It's a delicious and easy way to enjoy espresso.

I was pleasantly surprised by how easy this recipe was to make. I didn't have an ice cream maker, so I just used a blender and it turned out great. The ice cream was smooth and creamy, and the espresso flavor was just right.
