Homemade Butter Pecan Ice Cream
This homemade butter pecan ice cream recipe tastes even better than the ice cream shop and costs a fraction of the price to make.
What you’ll need:
- 1/3 cup chopped pecans
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs (beaten)
- 1 1/2 cups half-and-half
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Preparation instructions:
- Cook the pecans in the butter in a small skillet on medium heat. Stir the mixture constantly for 3 to 5 minutes or until they’re lightly browned. Set the pecans aside.
- Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl and set them aside.
- Stir the brown sugar and half-and-half together in a saucepan. Bring it to a boil on medium-high heat. Remove the half-and-half mixture from the heat and gradually pour it into the eggs. Whisk constantly until the mixture forms a custard.
- Move your custard back to the saucepan and cook it while stirring occasionally. Continue cooking until the mixture is able to coat the back of the spoon.
- Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in the pecans, vanilla and cream.
- Pour your custard into the ice cream maker and freeze it according to the instructions from the manufacturer.
- Enjoy on a cone, in a bowl or however you please.
