Espresso Ice Cream 🍦☕️

There’s nothing quite like the combination of rich, creamy ice cream and the bold flavor of espresso. This Espresso Ice Cream recipe is perfect for coffee lovers and makes a delightful dessert to enjoy anytime. Whether you’re using decaffeinated or regular espresso, the result is a smooth and decadent treat that’s sure to impress.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups heavy cream 🥛
• 1 cup whole milk 🥛
• 1/2 cup sugar 🍚
• 1/4 tsp salt 🧂
• 5 egg yolks 🥚
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 🌼
• 2 to 4 shots decaffeinated or regular espresso (1/4 to 1/2 cup) ☕️

Instructions:

1. Heat the Cream Mixture:
   In a medium saucepan, heat the cream, milk, sugar, and salt over medium heat. Whisk continuously to dissolve the sugar, which should take about 4 to 5 minutes. 🔥🥄
2. Prepare the Egg Yolks:
   In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks until they are well blended. 🥄🥚
3. Temper the Eggs:
   Gradually pour about 1 cup of the hot milk mixture into the egg yolk bowl, whisking continually to temper the eggs. This prevents the eggs from scrambling when added back to the hot mixture. 🍶🥚
4. Combine and Heat:
   Add the tempered egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan, whisking constantly. Continue to cook the mixture until it just comes to a simmer, but do not let it boil. 🔥🥄
5. Add Flavorings:
   Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and espresso. 🌼☕️
6. Strain and Chill:
   Pour the ice cream base through a fine mesh strainer into a clean bowl to remove any lumps. Chill the mixture completely in the refrigerator. ❄️
7. Churn the Ice Cream:
   Once chilled, spin the mixture in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions until it reaches the consistency of soft serve. 🍦
