Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 2 cups (16 ounces, 473 ml) milk (See Tip 1)
  • 1 cup (8 ounces, 237 ml) heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup (3.5 ounces, 99 grams) granulated sugar, (divided)
  • 4 egg yolks (See Tip 2)
  • 1/2 cup Nutella
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instruction

  • Whisk together milk, cream and 1/4 cup of sugar in a saucepan. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes.
  • While milk mixture is heating, beat egg yolks and remaining 1/4 cup of sugar on high with electric mixer until the eggs are thick and pale yellow, about 4 minutes. Pour 1/2 cup of the warm milk/cream mixture into the egg mixture to temper the eggs; and stir to combine ingredients. (See Tip 3)
  • Add tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan. Cook over medium low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon, about 10 minutes. (See Tip 4)
  • Pour custard mixture through a wire strainer set over large measuring cup. (See Tip 5)
  • Add Nutella and vanilla extract; whisk until Nutella dissolves. Chill mixture to between 36° F and 40° F. Pour chilled mixture into an ice cream maker; follow manufacturer's instructions to freeze. (See Tip 6)
  • Yield: 6 to 8 servings.
