  • 5. Open box of ice cream, and slice into about 1 inch slices.
  • 6. Place slices evenly over crumbs. It will start softening, as it does, smooth out so there are no cracks.
  • 7. Sprinkle remaining crumbs evenly over the ice cream, and drizzle with remaining ice cream topping. Cover and place in freezer until frozen. I run a knife under hot water and slice into individual square servings. Enjoy!

PECAN CARAMEL ICE CREAM



Pecan Caramel Ice Cream image

This recipe is one that my cousin made up using her mother's basic recipe when we were teenagers. It tastes like pecan pie with ice cream. It became one of the family's favorites. Nowadays we use our stand mixer's nice attachment, the ice cream bowl - or on-the-counter ice cream makers - and it still comes out great. I mix this up of a morning or the night before I plan to make it. One reason for this was the longer it sets, the better the flavors blend into cream mixture, making a much better flavored ice cream and a faster freeze time.

CARAMEL PECAN ICE CREAM



Caramel Pecan Ice Cream image

This recipe came from my users guide for the Kitchen Aid Ice cream attachment. It was the first recipe I tried...excellent choice!! This is what homemade ice cream is about...rich and very decadent. The only thing I would do differently next time....is toast the pecans. Cooking time only reflects the 30 minutes churning not the freezer time.

SALTED CARAMEL ICE CREAM



Salted Caramel Ice Cream image

This luxurious ice cream is the ideal balance of sweet yet salty and rich yet light. It's custard-based, which means you have to separate a lot of eggs (six), but the thick and silky results are worth a little bit of fuss. For something a little lighter, use more milk and less cream, as long as the dairy adds up to three cups. You can also cut down on egg yolks for a thinner base, but don't go below three. Despite the rumors, making caramel is not hard, but it can be a little tricky. If this is your first time, make sure you have enough sugar for a second batch in the event your first is a bust. Also, remove the cooking caramel from the heat just before you think you need to to prevent burning.

Time 30m

Yield About 1 1/2 pints

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 ¼ cups granulated sugar
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt
6 large egg yolks
1/4 teaspoon flaky sea salt (such as Maldon)

Steps:

  • In a medium pot over medium heat, melt 3/4 cup sugar with 3 tablespoons water, swirling skillet frequently, until sugar turns mahogany brown in color (it should be almost but not quite black).
  • Add heavy cream, milk, remaining 1/2 cup sugar and the salt; simmer mixture until caramel melts and cream mixture is completely smooth. Remove pot from heat. In a separate bowl, whisk yolks. Whisking constantly, slowly whisk about a third of the hot cream into the yolks, then whisk the yolk mixture back into the pot with the cream.
  • Return pot to medium-low heat and gently cook until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 170 degrees on an instant-read thermometer).
  • Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl. Cool mixture to room temperature. Cover and chill at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Churn in an ice cream machine according to manufacturer's instructions. Sprinkle flaky sea salt into base during the last 2 minutes of churning. Serve directly from the machine for soft serve, or store in freezer until needed.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh pecans: Fresh pecans will give your ice cream the best flavor. If you can, buy pecans that have been recently harvested.
  • Toast the pecans: Toasting the pecans will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant. You can toast pecans in the oven or in a skillet over medium heat.
  • Use a good quality caramel sauce: The caramel sauce is a key ingredient in this ice cream, so it's important to use a good quality one. You can make your own caramel sauce or use a store-bought brand that you like.
  • Chill the ice cream base before churning: Chilling the ice cream base before churning will help it churn more quickly and smoothly.
  • Churn the ice cream according to your ice cream maker's instructions: Every ice cream maker is different, so be sure to follow the instructions that came with yours.
  • Store the ice cream in the freezer for at least 4 hours before serving: This will give the ice cream time to firm up and develop its full flavor.
