This ice cream is made without the need for an ice cream maker. So if you haven’t gotten around to buying one — or don’t have the space for one — this luscious and super rich frozen treat is perfect for you.
We opted for an old-fashioned malt flavor, but you can leave that out if you’d prefer plain vanilla.
If you want to make chocolate, simply whisk 1/3 cup cocoa powder into the cream.
You also can freeze the mixture in individual dishes if you like.
Easy malted ice cream
1 1/4 cups sugar, divided
9 egg yolks
1 quart heavy cream
3/4 cup malted milk powder
Pinch of salt
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
In a large bowl, whisk half of the sugar with the egg yolks. Set aside.
In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the cream, malted milk powder, salt and the remaining sugar. Bring to a simmer.
Once the cream mixture is hot, while whisking the eggs pour the cream slowly into the bowl of eggs. Stir in the vanilla. Refrigerate the mixture until completely chilled, about 4 hours.
When the mixture is completely chilled, beat with an electric mixer until thick, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a freezer-safe, airtight container and freeze until firm, at least 4 hours. Enjoy within 3 days.
