Time 3h25m

Yield 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups half-and-half
6 extra-large egg yolks
2/3 cup sugar
Pinch salt
2 1/2 tablespoons ground espresso coffee beans, decaffeinated or regular
1 tablespoon coffee liqueur (recommended: Kahlua)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
4 ounces (1/2 cup) chocolate-covered espresso beans, chopped

Steps:

  • Heat the half-and-half until it forms bubbles around the edge of the pan and steam starts to rise. Meanwhile, in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the egg yolks, sugar, and salt until mixed. Slowly add the hot half-and-half until combined. Wipe out the pan and pour the mixture back into the clean pan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, for 5 to 10 minutes, until it's thickened and the cream coats the back of the spoon.
  • Pour the cream through a fine-meshed sieve into a bowl. Add the ground espresso beans, coffee liqueur, and vanilla and refrigerate until completely chilled.
  • Pour the espresso cream into an ice-cream freezer and freeze according to the manufacturer's directions. Mix in the chopped espresso beans, spoon into a container, and allow to freeze for a few hours. Soften slightly before serving.

I'm not a big fan of coffee, but I really enjoyed this ice cream. The coffee flavor was subtle and not at all bitter.

This was the perfect after-dinner treat. It was light and refreshing, and the coffee flavor wasn't too overpowering.

I was disappointed with this ice cream. The flavor was weak and the texture was icy. I won't be making it again.

This ice cream was a bit too strong for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less espresso powder.

This espresso ice cream was a hit! It had a rich coffee flavor and a creamy texture. I loved the little bits of chocolate in it too. It was the perfect way to cool down on a hot summer day.
