Return all to the pan, whisking constantly., Cook and stir over low heat until mixture is thickened and coats the back of a spoon. Remove from the heat; whisk in peanut butter. Quickly transfer to a bowl; place in ice water and stir for 2 minutes. Stir in cream and vanilla. Press waxed paper onto surface of custard. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight., Fill cylinder of ice cream freezer two-thirds full; freeze according to the manufacturer's directions. , When ice cream is frozen, spoon into a freezer container, layering with jelly; freeze for 2-4 hours before serving.

SALTED PB&J ICE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Crust:
• Preheat oven to 275°F. Place crackers in a deep pie dish (a shallower one will work but you may have some filling left over) and gently crush with your hands until you have a mix of dime-size pieces, small crumbs, and everything in between. Add peanuts, brown sugar, and salt and toss to combine. Drizzle in butter and toss to evenly coat. Using your hands and the bottom of a measuring cup, press firmly and evenly into bottom and up sides of dish. (Mixture will look and feel crumbly, but it will hold together when baked.) Bake crust until a shade darker, 20-25 minutes. Let cool.
• Do Ahead: Crust can be baked 3 days ahead. Store tightly wrapped at room temperature, or freeze up to 1 month.
• Filling and assembly:
• Pour water into a medium saucepan to come 1½" up the sides and bring to a bare simmer over medium-low heat. Whisk eggs, brown sugar, and salt in a large heatproof bowl just to combine (or use the bowl of a stand mixer if you've got one). Set over saucepan (bowl should not touch water) and heat egg mixture, stirring constantly with a heatproof rubber spatula, until sugar dissolves, about 4 minutes (mixture will no longer feel gritty when rubbed between your fingers). If you are concerned about undercooked eggs, heat mixture longer, still stirring constantly, until an instant-read thermometer registers 165°F, about 3 minutes more. Remove bowl from heat and add vanilla to egg mixture. Using an electric mixer, beat on high speed until thick and pale and doubled in volume, about 10 minutes. (Or, if using a stand mixer, beat with the whisk attachment, 6-8 minutes.)
• Using spatula, mix peanut butter in another large bowl to loosen up and smooth out. Stir one third of egg mixture into peanut butter to lighten, then gently fold in half of remaining egg mixture, running spatula down sides and along bottom of bowl, then lifting up through center and over top while rotating bowl, until just combined. Repeat with remaining egg mixture (it will lose a lot of volume, and that's okay).
• Starting on low speed and gradually increasing to medium-high, beat cream in the same bowl you used for egg mixture (no need to wash) until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes. Gently fold into peanut butter mixture and scrape into crust. Dollop jelly all over; swirl with a butter knife. (For more defined swirls, freeze pie 30 minutes before adding jelly.) Freeze at least 8 hours before serving.
• To slice, run a chef's knife under hot water to warm up the blade, then wipe to clean and dry between slices. Use an offset spatula or fork to loosen slices from dish. If pie is frozen very hard, you may need to let it temper in the fridge 30 minutes before serving.
• Do Ahead: Pie can be made 2 weeks ahead. Wrap tightly and freeze.

PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Prepare the peanut butter ice cream and let harden in the freezer for about 6 hours.
• Prepare the dough for peanut butter cookies and divide the dough into 16 walnut-size balls. Proceed with the recipe from there, baking the cookies 10 to 12 minutes at 350 degrees. Let cool completely.
• To assemble the ice cream sandwiches remove the ice cream from the freezer and let it stand at room temperature for about 5 minutes to soften slightly.
• Spread a layer of jam on the flat side of each peanut butter cookie. Place a scoop of peanut butter ice cream in the center of half the cookies, on top of the jam. Top with the remaining cookies, jam side down. Gently squeeze the cookies together until the ice cream and jam come to the edges of the cookies. Put the ice cream sandwiches back in the freezer for at least 15 minutes to harden the jam. These can be made 2 days ahead. Place them in a large plastic storage bag or airtight container and store in freezer.

SPRING HILL RANCH'S CINNAMON ICE CREAM

Steps:

• 1. NOTE: The preparation time above does not include the 1 hour steeping time or the chilling time
• 2. In a non-reactive saucepan over medium heat, combine the half-and-half, vanilla bean and seeds, cinnamon sticks, cinnamon and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil to scald it, and then remove the saucepan from the heat. Cover the pot and allow it to steep for 1 hour.
• 3. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the sugars and egg yolks. Set them aside.
• 4. Using a slotted spoon or strainer, fish the vanilla beans and cinnamon sticks from the half-and-half mixture. Over medium high heat, stirring often, reheat the mixture just to a boil.
• 5. Whisking rapidly and continuously, about 1/4 cup at a time, add a couple cups of the half-and-half mixture to the beaten eggs and sugar. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan. With the heat at medium, cook, stirring/whisking constantly, for 5 to 6 minutes, until the mixture becomes thick enough to coat the back of a spoon (or the temperature reaches 170-175°). Remove the pan from the heat. If there are lumps, strain through a fine mesh sieve. Stirring often, cool to room temperature or chill it in an ice bath. Cover with plastic wrap (covering the top of the custard) and refrigerate until well chilled, about 4 hours or overnight.
• 6. Pour the chilled ice cream mixture into your ice cream machine and follow the manufacturer's instructions for churning time. Place the ice cream into a freezer-safe container and freeze until firm, about 4-8 hours.

CRISPY SRIRACHA SPRING ROLLS

Steps:

• Toss coleslaw mix, onions, soy sauce and sesame oil; let stand while cooking chicken. In a saucepan, bring 4 cups water to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer. Add chicken; cook, covered, until a thermometer inserted in chicken reads 165°, 15-20 minutes. Remove chicken; cool slightly. Finely chop chicken; toss with seasoned salt., In a large bowl, mix cream cheese and chili sauce; stir in chicken and coleslaw mixture. With a corner of a spring roll wrapper facing you, place about 2 tablespoons filling just below center of wrapper. (Cover remaining wrappers with a damp paper towel until ready to use.) Fold bottom corner over filling; moisten remaining edges with water. Fold side corners toward center over filling; roll up tightly, pressing tip to seal. Repeat., In a cast-iron Dutch oven or electric skillet, heat oil to 375°. Fry spring rolls, a few at a time, until golden brown, 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally. Drain on paper towels. If desired, serve with sweet chili sauce. , Freeze option: Freeze uncooked spring rolls in freezer containers, spacing them so they don't touch, and separating layers with waxed paper. To use, fry frozen spring rolls as directed, increasing time as necessary.

SPRING HILL RANCH'S PEANUT BUTTER& JELLY ICE CREAM

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, whisk together the milk, skim milk powder, and sugar until all of the milk powder has dissolved and no lumps of powder remain. Any remaining sugar granules will dissolve over the heat. Stir in the cream.
• Set the pan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring constantly until the mixture just reaches the first bubbles of a boil, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Meanwhile, in a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks. When the cream mixture is ready, while whisking vigorously, temper the yolks by very slowly pouring in two or three cups of the hot milk-cream mixture. Continue to whisk until the mixture is an even color and consistency, then whisk the egg-yolk mixture back into the remaining milk-cream mixture.
• Return the pan to medium heat and continue cooking the mixture, stirring constantly, until it reaches 170º (coats the back of a spoon), 3 to 5 minutes more. Remove the pan from the heat and add the peanut butter and vanilla, whisking vigorously to combine.
• Transfer the pan to your prepared ice bath and let it cool for 15 to 20 minutes, whisking it often to prevent a "skin" from forming. If a few lumps of yolk are there, pour the ice cream base through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a storage container. Cover the container with plastic wrap, right on the surface of the mixture, and refrigerate it for 1 to 2 hours (or overnight) until it is completely cool. The cooler you get it, the quicker it freezes in the ice cream maker. This is important, especially if you will need to process two batches.
• Transfer the cooled base to an ice cream maker and churn it according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer the ice cream to a storage container, stirring in the chopped peanuts if you are using them. Gently fold in heaping spoonsful of the grape jelly, softly lifting and spinning it throughout the ice cream. Be careful not to over-mix it. Serve immediately or harden it in your freezer for 8 to 12 hours for a more scoopable ice cream.
