Time 30m

Yield 1 1/2 Pints

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 eggs, separated
1/2 cup caster sugar (100 g)
1 cup milk (250 ml)
2 cups heavy cream (500 ml)
3/4 cup macadamia nuts, lightly toasted and finely chopped (125 g)

Steps:

  • In a bowl, beat together the egg yolks and sugar until pale and fluffy. Over medium heat, combine the milk and half of the cream in a saucepan over medium heat, combine the milk and half of the cream and cook until bubbles form along the sides of the pan.

WHITE CHOCOLATE MACADAMIA BROWNIES

Categories     Mixer     Chocolate     Nut     Dessert     Bake     Picnic     Macadamia Nut     Potluck     Double Boiler     Gourmet

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 ounces fine-quality or premium white chocolate, chopped
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 large eggs
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup macadamia nuts, toasted lightly and chopped coarse
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. and butter and flour a 9-inch square baking pan, knocking out excess flour.
  • In a double boiler or metal bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water melt white chocolate and butter, stirring, until smooth and remove top of double boiler or bowl from heat. Cool chocolate mixture to room temperature.
  • In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat eggs, sugar, and vanilla until thickened and pale and beat in white chocolate mixture. Into a bowl sift together flour, baking powder, and salt and beat into chocolate mixture just until batter is combined well. Stir in nuts and chocolate chips and spread batter evenly in pan.
  • Bake brownies in middle of oven 30 to 35 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Cool brownies completely in pan on a rack before cutting into 16 squares. Brownies keep, layered between sheets of wax paper in an airtight container at cool room temperature, 5 days.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the ice cream will be. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 35%.
  • Don't overbeat the ice cream. Overbeaten ice cream will be icy and grainy. Churn the ice cream just until it is thick and creamy.
  • Add the macadamia nuts at the end of churning. This will prevent them from getting too soft.
  • Chill the ice cream before serving. This will help it to firm up and scoop more easily.
