Making your Coffee Ice Cream can be both fun and rewarding. Here’s how to do it step-by-step:
1. Prepare Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, instant coffee, and salt.
2. Whisk Together: Use a whisk to mix the ingredients thoroughly until the sugar and coffee dissolve completely.
3. Add Vanilla: Stir in the vanilla extract and coffee liqueur if using. Mix until well combined.
4. Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours. This step helps enhance the flavors.
5. Churn: After chilling, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker. Follow your manufacturer’s instructions for churning (typically takes about 20-25 minutes).
6. Transfer to Container: Once the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency, transfer it to an airtight container.
7. Freeze: Freeze for an additional 4-6 hours or until it is solid enough to scoop.
8. Serve: After freezing, allow it to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping into bowls or cones.
