With Memorial Day coming the Summer season is upon us. Why not cool off with some Guinness Ice Cream? We were inspired to make some based on some tweets we saw. Below is a video of us making some and the recipe we used. We looked at a bunch of different recipes and used our ice cream making experience to come our with our own.
Guinness Ice Cream
12 oz Guinness draught beer (not quite a whole draught can)
2 Cups Heavy Cream
1.5 Cups Milk
1 Cup Sugar
3 Egg yolks
2 tablespoons molasses
1 tablespoons Vanilla
- Pour Guinness, Heavy Cream, Milk, 1/2 cup sugar and molasses into a medium saucepan and heat on the stove, Med to Med-Hi heat. Heat until almost boiling. Stir often.
- Whisk egg yolks, 1/2 cup of sugar and vanilla in a separate bowl.
- When the cream mixture is hot, spoon small amounts into the yolk mixture and stir, to raise its temperature.
- Slowly pour yolk mixture into cream mixture on the stove. Stir constantly. Cook until mixture sticks to the back of your spoon. Try to keep it from boiling.
- Cool mixture till it is cold. This can be done with a few hours in the fridge, or in about 30 minutes using an ice bath.
- Pour mixture into your ice-cream machine following the manufactures instructions.
- Though it will be quite yummy right away it will solidify nicely in the freezer for a few hours.
