Description

You’ve never had ice cream as delicious as this Mint Ice Cream with Bourbon Magic Shell. That’s right, bourbon magic shell.

Ingredients

  • FOR THE MINT ICE CREAM:
  • 2 cups 2% Milk
  • 1 cup Half-and-half
  • ½ cups Fresh Mint Leaves
  • ¾ cups Sugar
  • Dash Of Salt
  • 2  Large Egg Yolks
  • 1 teaspoon Good Vanilla Extract
  • FOR THE BOURBON MAGIC SHELL:
  • 1 cup Bittersweet Chocolate, Chopped (semi-sweet If You Like It Sweeter)
  • 2 Tablespoons Coconut Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Bourbon

Preparation

Combine milk, half-and-half, and mint in a medium, heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Heat to 180ºF or until tiny bubbles forms around the edge. Keep an eye on the mixture to ensure it doesn’t boil.

Remove from heat, cover and let stand for 10 minutes to allow the mint to steep.

Uncover it and pour the mixture through a colander into a medium bowl. Discard the leaves, and pour the liquid back into your pan.

In a new bowl, combine sugar, salt, and egg yolks. Whisk until mixture is pale. Gradually add half of the milk mixture to the egg mixture, whisking constantly. Pour the mixture back into the pan with the rest of the milk. Cook over medium-low heat for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly.

Pour the mixture into a bowl and stir in vanilla extract. Place bowl in the fridge until mixture cools completely, stirring occasionally.

Pour mixture into your ice cream maker and follow the manufacturer’s instructions. I let mine go for about 25 minutes. Transfer mixture to a freezer-safe container and freeze for a couple of hours. In the meantime, make your magic shell.

Add the chocolate to a microwave-safe bowl or container along with the coconut oil. Microwave, in 30-second intervals, until completely melted. Stir in bourbon.

Pour it over the mint ice cream and allow to harden 30 seconds before you try to crack it. It will turn from glossy to matte when it’s ready. Devour with abandon.
