Italian Coffee Ice Cream
- 6 None egg yolks
- 3 cups heavy cream
- 2 oz coffee beans
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- None None chocolate-covered coffee beans, to decorate
- None None ice cream cones, to serve (optional)
- Whisk egg yolks and heavy cream together. Add coffee beans. Heat over a double boiler for 10 mins, stirring constantly, until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from heat, add sugar and stir until dissolved. Cover and chill for 2-3 hours, to infuse.
- Strain coffee custard into an 8x4 inch loaf pan. Cover tightly with foil and freeze until partially frozen. Transfer to a chilled bowl and beat until ice particles break up. Return to loaf pan and freeze overnight, until firm.
- Alternatively, churn in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to a loaf pan, cover with foil and freeze overnight.
- To serve, scoop into glasses and sprinkle with chocolate-covered coffee beans. Serve with ice cream cones, if desired.
