Sweet Chestnut Paste Made with Ice Cream

• 200 grams Peeled and boiled chestnuts
• 100 grams Vanilla ice cream
• 1 Brandy or rum

1. Warm the chestnuts in the microwave for about 1-2 minutes and mash.
2. While mashing, melt the ice cream in the microwave for about 30 seconds.
3. Mix the chestnuts and melted ice cream.
4. Strain through a strainer or sieve to smooth.
5. Add brandy or rum as desired.
6. You can use it as-is on toast, or on pancakes, or mix with whipped cream to make a chestnut cream.
7. Mix it with whatever ice cream you have for a chestnut ice cream.
8. It makes a large batch, so I store it in a tub.
9. If putting it in a pastry bag for something like Mont Blanc, mix with milk, heavy cream, or whipped cream until it can be piped out easily!
