Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
Candy Mix-Ins:
- 0.5 cups chopped Snickers
- 0.5 cups chopped Reese’s Cups
Flavor Enhancers:
- 0.5 cups mini chocolate chips
- 0.5 cups peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Whisk heavy cream, milk, sugar, and vanilla in a mixing bowl until sugar completely dissolves, creating a smooth base liquid.
- Transfer the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn for 20-25 minutes, following manufacturer’s recommended churning time and speed.
- As the mixture reaches a soft, creamy consistency, gently incorporate mini chocolate chips, ensuring even distribution throughout the ice cream.
- Carefully fold in peanut butter, creating delicate swirls and ribbons within the churning mixture.
- Add chopped Snickers bars and Reese’s Cups, stirring gently to prevent breaking the candy pieces into tiny fragments.
- Mix in cookie dough pieces, distributing them evenly for consistent flavor in each scoop.
- Carefully transfer the enriched ice cream to a freezer-safe container, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Cover the container tightly with a lid or plastic wrap to prevent ice crystals from forming.
- Freeze for 4-6 hours at 0°F, allowing the ice cream to firm up and develop a rich, creamy texture.
- Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 2-3 minutes to soften slightly for easy scooping.
Notes
- Chill all ingredients beforehand to ensure a smoother, faster churning process and prevent ice crystals from forming.
- Roughly chop Snickers and Reese’s Cups into smaller pieces for more even distribution throughout the ice cream.
- For a lower-sugar version, substitute sugar with monk fruit sweetener or stevia and use sugar-free chocolate chips.
- Create a gluten-free option by using certified gluten-free cookie dough and checking that Snickers and Reese’s Cups are gluten-free variants.
