Ingredients
2 cups heavy cream 🥛
1 cup whole milk 🥛
5 large egg yolks 🥚
1 cup granulated sugar 🍚
1 ½ to 3 ounces cold brew coffee concentrate ☕
¼ teaspoon salt 🧂
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 🌼
Instructions
1️⃣ You’ll need an ice cream maker for this recipe. It should be prepared ahead of time according to the manufacturer’s directions. 🛠️
2️⃣ Combine the heavy cream, milk, egg yolks, sugar, coffee concentrate, and salt in a saucepan. Bring to a steep over low-medium heat, but don’t let it boil. 🔥
3️⃣ Stir consistently and continue to cook for approximately 8 to 10 minutes until the custard thickens slightly. It should lightly coat the back of a spoon when ready. 🥄
4️⃣ Remove from heat then stir in the vanilla extract. 🌼
5️⃣ Transfer the custard to a bowl to cool (pour through a mesh strainer if desired). Place the bowl of custard into a larger bowl of ice for about 30 minutes to 1 hour. ❄️
6️⃣ After the custard ice cream base cools to room temperature, cover it with plastic wrap. The plastic wrap needs to touch the top of the custard to prevent a skin from forming. 📦
7️⃣ Transfer it to the refrigerator to cool completely, about 2 hours. Once cooled, the custard has a thin, pudding-like consistency. ⏳
8️⃣ Pour the refrigerated ice cream base into the prepared ice cream maker. Churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until the ice cream sets enough to transfer it to a freezer-safe container. It should be firmer than soft-serve consistency. 🍦
9️⃣ Freeze until the ice cream is completely firm. (Ours took 8 to 10 hours.) ❄️
🔟 Serve in a bowl with toppings or in a cone. Enjoy! 🍨
