The just-frozen ice cream is still soft enough to stir in the melted caramels. For fun, sprinkle with caramel popcorn. Ingredients:
2 cups fresh corn kernels (about 4 ears) |
1 cup half-and-half |
2 cups 2% reduced-fat milk |
2/3 cup sugar |
dash of salt |
3 large egg yolks |
3 tablespoons 2% reduced-fat milk |
12 small soft caramel candies |
Directions:
1. Combine corn and half-and-half in a food processor; process until smooth (about 1 minute). Pour pureed corn mixture into a sieve over a large bowl, reserving liquid; discard solids. Add 2 cups milk, sugar, salt, and egg yolks; stir with a whisk. Pour mixture into a large saucepan; cook over medium heat until thick (do not boil), stirring constantly (about 20 minutes). Remove from heat. Place pan in a large ice-filled bowl for 30 minutes or until mixture comes to room temperature, stirring occasionally.
2. Combine 3 tablespoons milk and caramels in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer; cook 10 minutes or until caramels melt, stirring frequently. Remove from heat; whisk until smooth. Cool slightly.
3. Pour corn mixture into the freezer can of an ice-cream freezer; freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. Stir in caramel mixture. Spoon ice cream into a freezer-safe container; cover and freeze 2 hours.
