Browned Butter Ice Cream
Method
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat until the solids at the base of the pan light brown and nutty smelling. Stir in the condensed milk. Strain the mixture into a bowl and chill in the freezer for 15 minutes.
- Beat the cream, condensed milk mixture and vanilla together with an electric mixer until thick, creamy and doubled in volume. Pour mixture into a freezer proof container, cover and freeze until firm.
- Allow 3 hours for chilling and freezing.
- Serve scoops of ice cream in a bowl, topped with berries.
More Tips
- While it might sound wickedly decadent, this ice cream has a lovely rich nutty vanilla flavour and only needs to be served in small quantities ( 1-2 scoops per person).
- It marries perfectly with fresh berries.
- This ice cream is not suitable for churning in an ice cream maker.
- To achieve perfect scoops, remove ice cream from the freezer 10 minutes before serving to soften slightly.
- This ice cream is absolutely divine served with Christmas pudding instead of brandy butter.
- For a special Christmas touch, try adding roasted chopped macadamias to ice cream before freezing.
