Butterfinger Cashew Crunch Ice Cream Recipe
- 2 c. Heavy Whipping Cream
- 2 c. Lowfat milk (I used the 1% stuff which was on sale)
- 2 Tbsp. Cool water
- 3 x Rennet tablets
- 1 c. Sugar
- 4 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1/2 c. Cashew nuts (broken ones are fine)
- 6 x Trick-or possibly-treat size Butterfinger candy bars
- 3/4 c. French Toast Crunch breakfast cereal
- Dissolve rennet tablets in water (swirl the bowl till dissolved), set aside.
- Combine cream, lowfat milk, sugar, and vanilla in saucepan and heat stirring constantly to 110 degrees.
- Pour into the ice cream freezer machine, then add in the rennet tablet solution and operate the churn for five or possibly ten seconds to mix well.
- Turn off the churn and let which cold for a while.
- Take the butterfinger bars (still in their wrappers) and bludgeon them with the flat handle of a knife (I used a heavy-handled bread knife) to crush the contents well.
- Open the wrappers and dump/scrape the crushed contents into your food processor (with metal blade).
- Add in the cashews and the breakfast cereal, and pulse the food processor till the dry ingredients are just broken up and well mixed.
- By now the custard should be set and cooled off somewhat.
- Turn on the ice cream maker's refrigeration switch and, after a few min, the churn.
- When the ice cream mix is just starting to freeze, pour in the crushed dry ingredients and continue to freeze to the desired consistency.
- This will vary depending on your freezer, but for me it takes about 25-35 min.
- This is a really scrumptious combination, and could be varied by changing the flavoring ingredients with other stuff you have around.
