Brown Sugar Ice Cream With Cayenne Spiced Walnuts Recipes

BROWN SUGAR ICE CREAM RECIPE

Steps:

• In the bowl of your mixer whisk together milk, brown sugar, and salt until the sugar is dissolved.
• Beat in heavy cream and vanilla and refrigerate 3 hours or overnight.
• Add chilled mixture to ice cream maker and churn according to directions.
• Once churned cover and freeze 2 hours until firm (if desired).

CAYENNE SUGAR NUTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Mix white sugar, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl.
• Beat egg white and water together in a separate large bowl until frothy but not yet stiff; add pecans and stir to coat. Season nuts with the sugar mixture and spread onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
• Roast in oven, turning occasionally, until the nuts are browned and no longer moist, about 30 minutes.
• Set baking sheet on a wire rack to cool nuts, breaking apart any nuts stuck together.

BROWN SUGAR & CINNAMON ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Place all ingredients into a large mixing bowl. Using a stand mixer or hand-held mixer, mix at low speed until all ingredients are incorporated. Then increase the speed a bit and mix until frothy.
• Into your ice cream machine's frozen churning tub, pour the mixture and churn for 15-18 minutes (or per your ice cream machine model's instructions) or until mixture resembles soft-serve ice cream.
• Using a rubber spatula, quickly turn ice cream into a freezer container. I prefer to use a rectangular, wide container and pour the mixture in 2 inches thick because the ice cream freezes more quickly this way. Freeze for 2-4 hours or until frozen solid or to your preferred consistency.
• Serve and enjoy!

SWEET, SALTY, SPICY PARTY NUTS

• Heat sugar, water, and butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until the butter is melted. Cook for 1 minute and remove from heat. Slowly pour butter mixture over the bowl of nuts and stir to coat.
• Transfer nuts to the prepared baking sheet and spread into a single layer.
• Bake nuts in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Stir nuts until the warm syrup coats every nut. Spread into a single layer, return to the oven, and bake until nuts are sticky and roasted, about 6 minutes. Allow to cool before serving.

CANDIED SPICY WALNUTS

Steps:

• Combine 2 cups water, sugar, and cayenne in heavy medium saucepan. Bring to boil over high heat, stirring until sugar dissolves and occasionally brushing down sides of pan with pastry brush dipped into water. Add walnuts to pan; reduce heat to medium and cook until syrup boils and bubbles thickly and vigorously and nuts are very sticky, about 35 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pour enough vegetable oil into heavy large saucepan to reach depth of 4 inches; heat vegetable oil to 350°F. Drain walnuts, discarding syrup. Working in batches and using slotted spoon, transfer walnuts to hot oil and cook until well browned, stirring constantly, about 2 minutes per batch. Using slotted spoon, transfer walnuts to rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle with coarse salt; cool completely. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)
