Decadent Peanut Butter Soy Ice Cream Recipes

DECADENT PEANUT BUTTER SOY ICE CREAM

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, whisk together sugar, cornstarch, soy milk, and peanut butter.
• Bring to a boil over medium heat, whisking frequently, and boil whisking constantly for one minute; remove from heat.
• Whisk several large spoonfuls of hot milk mixture into egg, then whisk egg back into saucepan of hot milk.
• Return saucepan to heat and cook over medium flame, whisking constantly, until mixture returns to a boil. It will have thickened slightly.
• Refrigerate until cold (I first cool by carefully putting the pan into a sinkful of cold water). The cooking time does not take the cooling time into account.
• Freeze mixture in ice cream maker according to manufacturer's directions. Add chips towards the end of the freezing process.

VANILLA SOY ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Put the eggs yolks, sugar, and corn starch into a bowl; whisk the mixture together.
• Heat the soy milk; slowly pour the hot soy milk into the mixture while continuing to beat.
• Add the vanilla extract.
• Gently heat the mixture until it thickens.
• Let the mixture cool in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours.
• Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker; make ice cream following the instructions of the machine.
• Note: I'm not sure exactly how much ice cream this yields, but I made it in my 1 1/2 quart ice cream maker and there was room to spare!

EASY VEGAN PEANUT BUTTER-MAPLE ICE CREAM

Steps:

• In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, simmer maple syrup, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reduces by a third, 8 to 12 minutes. Remove from heat and let syrup cool completely, stirring it occasionally as it cools. You should have about 1/2 cup.
• Place syrup, creamer, peanut butter, vanilla and salt in a blender or food processor (or use an immersion blender), and blend until smooth, 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Pour ice cream into a loaf pan.
• Cover and place in the freezer to harden overnight or for at least 4 to 6 hours. Remove pan from the freezer at least 10 minutes before scooping and serving, topped with chocolate shavings or sprinkles, if you like.
