Preparing the Base
Making the Custard
Start by heating heavy cream and whole milk in a saucepan over medium heat. In a separate bowl, whisk together egg yolks, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined. Slowly pour the hot cream mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from cooking. Once combined, return the mixture to the saucepan and cook until it thickens, stirring constantly. This will create a creamy custard base for your ice cream.
Adding the Christmas Flavors
Once the custard is done, remove it from the heat and stir in brandy, dark rum, and mixed spice. These traditional Christmas flavors will give your ice cream that festive touch. If you want a more intense flavor, you can also add chopped dried fruits such as raisins, cranberries, and apricots to the custard.
Churning the Ice Cream
Letting the Custard Cool
Before churning the ice cream, make sure that the custard is completely cool. You can speed up this process by placing the custard in an ice bath and stirring until it reaches room temperature.
Churning and Freezing
Once the custard is cool, pour it into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This will incorporate air into the mixture, giving the ice cream a light and creamy texture. Once churned, transfer the ice cream into a container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
Serving and Decorating
Serving Suggestions
When ready to serve, scoop the Christmas Pudding Ice Cream into bowls or cones and top with your favorite Christmas toppings such as candied nuts, chocolate shavings, or crushed candy canes. You can also serve it alongside a slice of traditional Christmas pudding for a truly indulgent treat.
Adding a Festive Touch
To add a festive touch to your Christmas Pudding Ice Cream, you can also decorate it with some holly leaves and bright red berries. This will not only make it look more appealing but also add a pop of color to your dessert table.
With its rich and creamy texture and delicious Christmas flavors, this Christmas Pudding Ice Cream is sure to become a new holiday favorite. So why not give it a try and impress your friends and family with this delightful dessert? Happy holidays!
