Ice Cream Base

  • 1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt Sea salt can also be used.
  • 2 cups Heavy Cream Half-and-half works in a pinch.

Method
 

Ice Cream Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the creamy peanut butter, light brown sugar, and kosher salt until smooth, about 2 minutes.
  2. Gradually stir in the heavy cream, milk, and vanilla extract until fully blended and creamy.
  3. Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, about 20–25 minutes.
  4. While churning, microwave the additional creamy peanut butter for about 1 minute until fluid, then stir in the powdered sugar.
  5. Once the ice cream thickens to a soft-serve consistency, transfer half into an airtight container.
  6. Drizzle half of the peanut butter swirl over the ice cream and top with the remaining ice cream, repeating with the rest of the swirl.
  7. Gently swirl the ice cream and peanut butter together, then cover and freeze for at least 4 hours.
