Ingredients
For the Ice Cream Base
2 cups (480ml) heavy cream
1 cup (240ml) whole milk
¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
1 tbsp vanilla extract
A pinch of salt
4 large egg yolks
For the Moose Tracks Mix-ins
½ cup (120g) peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
½ cup (120ml) chocolate fudge sauce
½ cup (60g) mini peanut butter cups, chopped into small pieces
Instructions
Make the Ice Cream Base
In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt.
Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is warm (but not boiling).
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks until smooth.
Gradually pour the warm cream mixture into the egg yolks while whisking constantly (this is called tempering).
Once combined, return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon (about 5-7 minutes).
Remove from heat and strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove any curdled egg bits.
Stir in the vanilla extract and allow the mixture to cool.
Once cooled, cover and refrigerate the base for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
Churn the Ice Cream
Pour the cooled ice cream base into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
During the last few minutes of churning, add in the chopped mini peanut butter cups, allowing them to mix in.
Swirl in the Moose Tracks
Once the ice cream has finished churning, transfer it to a large mixing bowl or storage container.
Gently swirl in the peanut butter and chocolate fudge sauce, creating ribbons throughout the ice cream without completely mixing them in.
You can add extra peanut butter cups here if desired for more crunch!
Freeze the Ice Cream
Once swirled and mixed, cover the container with a lid or plastic wrap and place the ice cream in the freezer for at least 4 hours to firm up, or overnight for a firmer consistency.
Serve
Once frozen, scoop and serve your homemade Moose Tracks Ice Cream in bowls or cones. Enjoy the creamy, crunchy, and fudgy treat!
Tips
If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can place the mixture in a shallow dish, freeze it, and stir every 30 minutes until it reaches the desired consistency.
For an extra treat, drizzle some chocolate or peanut butter syrup on top before serving.
You can customize the mix-ins by adding other candy or nuts to your liking!
This Homemade Moose Tracks Ice Cream is sure to be a hit with its rich flavor and mix-ins of peanut butter and chocolate, making it a perfect homemade indulgence for any occasion!
