Caro, Walnut and Cinnamon Ice Cream

If you haven't already got yourself an ice-cream maker, GET ONE! You will not regret it.  It doesn't matter if you don't add sugar to most recipes and you can get so creative and use all the yummy ingredients we CAN have to treat yourself with a little bit of delish after a meal.  I made this one tonight and i was impressed :)


Caro, Walnut & Cinnamon Ice-cream 
(Ice-Cream maker required)

Ingredients:-

1 Cup whole milk
1 Cup heavy cream
2 large egg yolds
1 tablespoon glucose powder (optional)
1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons Caro
Chopped Walnuts
Cinnamon

Directions:-

Beat eggs with a mixer, gradually add glucose powder if you are using.  Beat again until well mixed.

Place eggs mixture into a saucepan on medium head, stir and gradually add milk in continually stirring.
Melt Caro with a tiny amount of boiled water and add to mixture and also add vanilla.

Take off heat as soon as it starts to thicken or just before boiling point (it will curdle if it boils.)

Put mixture in a bowl and cool down mixture in the fridge.

Once cooled, add the cream, stir through and chill in fridge over night.

Once this is done you are now able to put mixture straight into the ice-cream maker.  If you would like cinnamon and walnuts, chop up walnuts and add a sprinkle of cinnamon to mixture just before adding to icecream maker.
