Vanilla Honey Soft Serve Ice Cream Recipes

HONEY VANILLA ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Add cream, vanilla and honey to blender.
• Blend on a lower setting just until smooth and combined, about 3-5 seconds. Be careful not to blend too long, you don't want the cream to turn to butter or get a lot of air in the mixture. If any foam forms on the top, remove this with a spoon.
• Pour mixture into ice cream maker.
• Turn machine on and mix according to your ice cream maker's instructions.
• Ice cream will start to have a "soft serve" texture when it is done. This is my family's favorite way to eat it. If you prefer it to be a little firmer or need to serve it later, place in the freezer to harden.

HOMEMADE VANILLA HONEY ICE CREAM

Steps:

• In large bowl, combine ingredients; mix well. Pour into ice cream freezer container. Freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. Freeze leftovers.
• *You can substitute maple syrup for the Honey to make it into maple ice cream.
• Variations.
• Fresh Fruit Ice Cream: Reduce half-and-half to 1 cup. Add 1 cup pureed or mashed fruit (bananas, peaches, strawberries, etc.) and few drops food coloring if desired. Proceed as above.
• Refrigerator-Freezer Method: Omit half-and-half. Whip whipping cream. In large bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk and vanilla; mix well. Fold in whipped cream. Pour into 9x5-inch loaf pan or other 2-quart container; cover. Freeze 6 hours or until firm. Freeze leftovers.

VANILLA-HONEY SOFT SERVE ICE CREAM

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together yolks, sugar, honey, vanilla and salt until smooth.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring cream to a simmer.
• Whisking the yolks constantly, slowly pour half the hot cream into the egg mixture. Scrape custard back into saucepan and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until custard is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon (180 degrees on an instant-read or candy thermometer). Do not let mixture come to a simmer or it could curdle. Strain into a heatproof bowl and whisk in cream cheese until completely melted.
• Nestle bowl in a larger bowl filled with ice water. Using a hand mixer or immersion blender, whip custard until thick and cold, about 5 minutes. Spoon mixture into 3 or 4 ice cube trays. Freeze for at least 3 hours or overnight (or up to 1 week).
• Using an offset spatula or butter knife, pop out ice cream cubes. Transfer to a food processor or blender. Pulse cubes with milk until the ice cream is smooth and has the consistency of soft serve. Serve immediately, or return to container and freeze for up to 1 week.
