Coffee & Almond Ice Cream
Instructions
1

Whisk together the milk, whipping cream, 1/3 c. sugar, coffee grounds, salt, almond extract, and vanilla extract. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Meanwhile, whisk together the remaining 1/3 c. sugar and egg yolks until pale yellow, about 2 minutes.

Gradually mix half of the cream mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly. Pour the yolk-cream mixture back into the saucepan, and cook over medium heat until slightly thickened. It should coat the back of a spoon. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl. Cool it with an ice bath. Press a piece of plastic wrap over the top to keep a skin from forming. Refrigerate for one hour.

Stir in the chopped almonds. Freeze in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Pour into a freezer-safe container. Freeze for one hour before serving.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Coffee Infusion Technique ☕Use freshly ground espresso beans or high-quality instant espresso powder for the most intense and authentic coffee flavor in your ice cream base.
- Almond Roasting Secret 🥜Toast almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring constantly to develop a rich, nutty flavor without burning.
- Smooth Custard Base 🥄Temper egg yolks slowly by gradually whisking in hot cream to prevent scrambling and ensure a silky-smooth ice cream texture.
- Freezing Pro Tip 🧊Chill the ice cream base completely before churning, and add chopped almonds in the last 2 minutes of churning for even distribution.
- Storage Preservation 🍨Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the ice cream before freezing to prevent ice crystals and maintain creamy consistency.
