Halloween Candy Ice Cream
Make good use of your leftover Halloween candy in this delicious ice cream recipe! Can be adapted for whatever candy you have on hand.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups various Halloween candy chopped
Instructions
- To make Halloween Candy Ice cream, you’ll first start by making the ice cream base the night before. To make the ice cream base, add the sugar, whole milk, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt to a large bowl, whisking to combine until the sugar has completely dissolved.
- Cover and refrigerate overnight. If your ice cream maker requires you to do so, add in your ice cream maker bowl to your freezer.
- The next day, remove the mixture from your fridge and your ice cream bowl from your freezer.
- Add the ice cream bowl to the ice cream maker and pour in the cream mixture.
- Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to churn into ice cream (mine took about 15 minutes to resemble soft serve ice cream).
- While your ice cream churns, roughly chop your candy.
- When the mixture begins to start looking more like soft serve and less like milk (about 15 minutes), stir in your candy pieces.
- Churn for another 5 minutes, or until the candy pieces are fully incorporated.
- Turn off the ice cream maker and scoop your ice cream into a freezer-safe container.
- Freeze for at least 4 hours before digging in.
