King Arthur Mocha Madness Ice Cream

Submitted by Kerena

"This recipes says "Our taste testers here at King Arthur claim this is the best coffee ice cream they've ever tasted. Feel free to mix in your own add-ins, if Oreo cookies aren't a favorite." The recipe printed in thier catalog had 1 cup of semi sweet chocolate chunks instead of the Oreos. Posted for safe keeping. Yield is a guesstimate as it was not listed."

 

• Ready In: 8mins
• Ingredients: 7
• Yields: 1/2 gallon
• Serves: 6-8

ingredients

• 1 cup whole milk, cold
• 3⁄4 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons espresso powder
• 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, Dutch-process preferred
• 2 cups heavy cream or 2 cups whipping cream, cold
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 8 Oreo cookies, broken into small pieces

directions

1. Whisk or mix together the milk, sugar, espresso powder, and cocoa till the sugar has dissolved.
2. Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla.
3. Freeze in ice cream maker according to manufacturer's directions.
4. Stir cookie bits into soft ice cream, and serve immediately.
5. For firmer ice cream, place in a covered container. Place in the freezer for 2 to 3 hours, until ice cream is as hard as you like it. Note: Freezing longer than this will make the ice cream rock hard; plan on softening at room temperature for 15-20 minutes or so before serving, if the ice cream has been in the freezer longer than a few hours.
6. Don't have an ice cream maker? Simply pour the chilled mocha cream into a bowl, place the bowl in the freezer, uncovered, and stir the cream every hour. After about 4 hours or so, it'll be soft-serve consistency. Continue to stir and freeze till it's the consistency you like. While it won't be as creamy as churned ice cream, it'll be absolutely delicious. After 6 or more hours in the freezer, it'll become quite hard. To serve, simply remove from the freezer for 15 minutes or so, to soften it enough to make it "scoopable.".

This has to be the BEST ice cream ever, specially if you enjoy coffee flavor and we sure do, creamy, rich, chocolaty mocha goodness for sure. I did make 2 tweaks, used all heavy cream, and instead of orea cookies, used mini chocolate chips - the best!!!
