Here is a simple, but totally decadent recipe for butter pecan ice cream that is made in the ice cream maker. So easy to make with fabulous results. Much better than store bought. Great for a hot summer day...or any time of the year for that matter. Cook time includes freeze time that varies from machine to machine. Whole pecan nuts can be used instead of the chopped!
Ingredients:
1/2 pint light cream
1/2 pint heavy cream
2 ounces brown sugar
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup pecan nuts (chopped)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (or according to taste)
Directions:
1. Place the light cream, sugar and butter into a saucepan and mix together over a low heat.
2. Stir until the mixture starts to bubble around the edges.
3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow to cool.
4. When the mixture is cold transfer it to an ice cream maker and stir in the heavy cream and vanilla extract.
5. Freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions but remember to add the pecan nuts as the ice cream starts to harden.
