Total Time: 15 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup chocolate syrup
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1/2 cup mini peanut butter cups
Instructions
- Chill a large mixing bowl and electric mixer beaters in the freezer for about 15 minutes to ensure maximum whipping potential for the heavy cream.
- Remove the chilled bowl and begin whipping the heavy cream using an electric mixer. Beat on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, which typically takes 3-4 minutes. The cream should stand up firmly when the beaters are lifted.
- In a separate large bowl, pour the entire can of sweetened condensed milk. Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk, using a spatula and taking care to maintain the air and volume of the whipped cream.
- Drizzle chocolate syrup and softened peanut butter across the mixture, creating swirled patterns throughout the base. Use a knife or spatula to create gentle marbling effects.
- Roughly chop the mini peanut butter cups and fold them gently into the ice cream base, distributing them evenly.
- Transfer the mixture into a freezer-safe container with an airtight lid. Smooth the top with a spatula to create an even surface.
- Cover the container with plastic wrap directly touching the surface of the ice cream to prevent ice crystals from forming, then seal with the lid.
- Freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until the ice cream is firm and scoopable.
- Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 3-5 minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping.
Tips
- Chill Your Equipment: Freezing your mixing bowl and beaters beforehand ensures the heaviest cream possible, creating a luxuriously smooth texture.
- Whip with Precision: When beating the heavy cream, watch for stiff peaks - they should stand up firmly when you lift the beaters.
- Fold Gently: When combining whipped cream and condensed milk, use a light folding motion to preserve the air and volume.
- Create Beautiful Swirls: Take your time when drizzling chocolate syrup and peanut butter to create stunning marbled patterns.
- Prevent Ice Crystals: Always cover the surface directly with plastic wrap before freezing to ensure a silky smooth consistency.
- Serving Hack: Let the ice cream sit for a few minutes before scooping to achieve that perfect, creamy texture.
