How To Make coffee ice cream

  • 1
    In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add milk, coffee beans, sugar and salt. Stir and bring the mixture to a simmer - do not boil.
  • 2
    Remove from the heat and transfer the milk mixture to a small bowl. Add finely ground coffee, Tia Maria and vanilla extract; stir well. Place wax paper on top making sure it touches the surface to prevent a skin from forming and let the mixture steep for 1 hour.
  • 3
    Later, remove wax paper and discard it. Pour mixture into a fine sieve over a large bowl; discard coffee beans. Add sweetened condensed milk and stir to blend. Taste the custard and add powdered sugar if it’s bitter – keep in mind that the whipped cream has some sweetness to it; set aside.
  • 4
    In the bowl of a stand mixer, add cold heavy cream and powdered sugar. With the whisk attachment on, process on high speed until stiff peaks form.
  • 5
    Scoop half the whipped cream into the milk mixture and fold until mixed. Add the custard mixture to the remaining whipped cream and fold again until well combined.
  • 6
    Pour the mixture into an ice cream tub, cover and transfer to the freezer until it hardens, about 8 hours.
