Best 3 Iced Cafe Crema Recipes

COFFEE ICE CREAM

Steps:

• In a medium pot, combine the sugar, heavy cream, milk and salt. Place over medium heat, and stir frequently, just until the sugar is dissolved (do not boil). Remove from the heat.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks. Remove 1/3 cup of the warm cream mixture from the pot. While whisking the yolks constantly, slowly drizzle the cream into the eggs to temper. Transfer the warmed egg mixture to the pot with the remaining cream mixture, whisking well to combine. Return the pot to medium heat, stirring frequently with a rubber spatula to scrape the bottom and corners of the pan, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of the spoon (on a thermometer, the temperature should be between 160° to 180°). Immediately pour through a mesh strainer into a large bowl and set it over a bowl of ice water. Stir to cool the mixture.
• Add the coffee and stir until the mixture is at room temperature. Cover and refrigerate the ice cream base for 4 hours until cold, or overnight.
• Transfer to an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. You can eat this directly from the machine, like soft serve, or transfer to a container to freeze for at least 6 hours, or up to 48 hours, for best texture and scoop-a-bility. Serve topped with chocolate shavings, if you like.

ICED CAFE CREMA

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a blender and mix until creamy.
• Pour into tall glasses and serve at once.
• Note: To make good iced coffee, start with your favorite coffee brewed double-strength to compensate for the dilution from the ice.
• Starbucks recommends Caffé Verona Blend or other dark-roast blend because they produce a more flavorful iced coffee drink.

HOMEMADE ICE CREAM IN A COFFEE CAN

Steps:

• Additional supplies needed: A 1 lb coffee can and a 3 lb coffee can.
• Mix the first three basic ingredients together (not including rock salt) and pour into the one pound coffee can. Add flavorings if desired. Place the lid on securely and set inside the three pound can.
• Add ice, and alternate layers of ice and salt outside the small can and inside the large can. When totally full, secure the lid on the large can. You may wish to add duct tape for good measure.
• Now here comes the fun part! Place a sheet on the floor or wrap the can in a large towel. Let party guests roll the can back and forth for at least 10 minutes. Open the cans and check the ice cream.
• If it is not starting to freeze, replace lids and roll 10 minutes more. The ice cream should be frozen to the sides and bottom of the can. If not thick enough, place in freezer and check every 10 minutes or so.
• Note: This recipe can be effected by temperature, humidity, and other environmental factors, so make a trial run before attempting in a group setting.
