Homemade Coffee Ice Cream: A Bold and Creamy Delight

Introduction: Awaken your taste buds with the bold flavor of homemade coffee ice cream. This creamy treat combines the richness of coffee with the indulgence of ice cream, creating a delightful dessert that's perfect for coffee lovers. Let's dive into the recipe and brew up a batch of deliciousness!

Ingredients:

• 2 cups heavy cream
• 1 cup whole milk
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup ground coffee (use your favorite coffee beans)
• 4 large egg yolks
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and ground coffee.
2. Place the saucepan over medium heat and heat the mixture until it just starts to steam, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar.
3. Once the mixture is steaming, remove it from the heat and let it steep for 20-30 minutes to infuse the coffee flavor. Stir occasionally.
4. After steeping, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove the ground coffee. Discard the coffee grounds.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks until smooth.
6. Slowly pour a small amount of the warm coffee-infused cream mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly to temper the eggs.
7. Gradually pour the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining cream mixture, whisking constantly.
8. Place the saucepan back over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon. Do not let it boil.
9. Once thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
10. Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl to remove any cooked egg bits. Let it cool slightly.
11. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the mixture to prevent a skin from forming.
12. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until thoroughly chilled.
13. Once chilled, pour the coffee mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
14. Transfer the churned coffee ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
15. Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping.
16. Scoop the bold and creamy coffee ice cream into bowls or cones, and enjoy the perfect pick-me-up dessert!
