I’ve fallen for coffee ice cream - unfortunately it’s not common here in Denmark, so whatever’s availale is very expensive. Anyone have a recipe?

I haven’t tried this recipe, but I’ve liked others from the same book. This is from The Ultimate Ice Cream Book:

3/4 cup sugar
3 large egg yolks
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
3/4 cup whole coffee beans
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

In a medium mixing bowl, beat the sugar into the egg yolks until they are thickened and pale yellow. Beat in the flour and salt. Set aside.

Combine the milk and coffee beans in a heavy medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Lower the heat, cover, and keep warm for 20 minutes.

Remove the coffee beans with a skimmer or slotted spoon. Slowly beat the warm milk into the eggs and sugar. Pour the entire mixture back into the pan and place over low heat. Stir constantly with a whisk or wooden spoon until the custard thickens slightly. Be careful not to let the mixture boil or the eggs will scramble. Remove from the heat and pout the hot coffee custard through a strainer into a large, clean bowl. Allow the custard to cool slightly, then stir in the cream and vanilla. Cover and refrigerate until cold or overnight.

Stir the chilled custard, then freeze in 1 or 2 batches in your ice cream machine according to the manufacturer’s instructions. When finished, the ice cream will be soft but ready to eat. For firmer ice cream, transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze at least two hours.

This recipe is from “Ben and Jerry’s Homemade Ice Cream and Dessert Book.” BTW, I highly recommend this book. The recipes are yummy and very easy to follow.

Ingredients:

2 large eggs
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
2 cups heavy or whipping cream
1 cup milk
3 tablespoons good-quality freeze-dried coffee

  1. Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the sugar, a little at a time, then continue whisking until completely blended, about one minute more. Add the cream, milk, and 2 tablespoons of the coffee and whisk to blend.

  2. Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze following the manufacturer’s instructions.

  3. After the ice cream stiffens (about 2 minutes before it is done), add the remaining one tablespoon coffee, then continue freezing until the ice cream is ready.

Makes 1 quart.
