Yield Makes 15

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup Milk Caramel
1 cinnamon stick
6 large egg yolks
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup canned solid-packed pumpkin
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Chewy Gingerbread Cookies

Steps:

  • Bring milk, cream, milk caramel, and cinnamon stick to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring often. Remove from heat. Cover, and let stand 30 minutes. Return to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; discard cinnamon stick. Set aside.
  • Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Put yolks and sugar into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until pale and thick, about 4 minutes.
  • With machine running, add hot milk mixture in a slow, steady stream. Add pumpkin and vanilla, and beat until combined. Pour mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl set in the ice-water bath. Freeze in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Sandwich ice cream between gingerbread cookies just before serving.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh pumpkin puree. You can make your own by roasting a pumpkin and then pureeing the flesh, or you can buy canned pumpkin puree.
  • If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can make your own by combining ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and ground cloves.
  • To make the ice cream sandwiches easier to assemble, freeze the ice cream for at least 2 hours before using.
  • If you don't have a cookie cutter, you can use a sharp knife to cut the cookies into circles.
  • To make the ice cream sandwiches even more special, you can drizzle them with chocolate sauce or caramel sauce.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin ice cream sandwiches are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for fall.
