Peanut Butter Cup Ice Cream recipe

1 servings

1/4 cup sugar

3 eggs

1 cup whole milk

3/4 cup peanut butter

3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk

1/2 cup half-and-half cream

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

12 miniature peanut butter cups, chopped

In a medium bowl, beat the sugar and eggs with an electric mixer until thick, about 3 minutes.

Set aside.

Pour milk into a small saucepan, and bring to a simmer over low heat.

Gradually drizzle the hot milk into the eggs while whisking vigorously.

Then pour the whole mixture into the saucepan.

Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon.

Do not boil.

Remove from heat, and whisk in peanut butter.

Allow to cool slightly, then whisk in the sweetened condensed milk, half-and-half and vanilla.

Cover and refrigerate until chilled.

Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker, and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Fold in peanut butter cups when mixture is still soft, then transfer to a container, and freeze until solid.
