Ordinary ice cream just won't do for the holidays. So I make this cool and creamy treat featuring Amaretto, almonds and chocolate chips.Guests can't resist it!Nancy Paul, Lakeview, Ohio Ingredients:
2 cups heavy whipping cream |
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk |
2 egg yolks |
1/4 cup amaretto |
1/4 teaspoon almond extract |
1/2 cup sliced almonds, toasted |
1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips |
1/4 cup sliced almonds |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, beat cream until stiff peaks form; set aside. In a small saucepan, heat milk to 175°, stirring constantly. Whisk a small amount of the hot mixture into egg yolks. Return all to the pan, whisking constantly. Cook and stir over low heat until mixture reaches at least 160° and coats the back of a metal spoon. Remove from the heat.
2. Cool quickly by placing pan in a bowl of ice water; stir for 2 minutes. Stir in Amaretto and extract. Fold in whipped cream and toasted almonds. Pour into a 9-in. square pan; cover and freeze for 4 hours or until firm.
3. In a microwave, melt chocolate chips; stir until smooth. Cut ice cream into squares. Drizzle each serving with chocolate; sprinkle with almonds. Yield: 10 servings.
