Caramel Corn Ice Cream Recipes

CARAMEL CORN ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Put cream and milk into a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Cut kernels from 6 raw ears corn, and chop the cobs. Add both to cream mixture with vanilla extract. Let the corn steep. Heat the mixture until hot (do not let simmer), about 2 minutes. Remove mixture from heat; cover, and let stand 30 minutes. Strain and discard solids.
• Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Put yolks, sugar, and salt into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until yolk mixture has tripled in volume and can hold a ribbon on surface for 2 seconds, about 3 minutes.
• Reduce speed to medium. Ladle 1 cup cream mixture in a slow stream into yolk mixture to temper it. Add another cup cream mixture; beat to combine. Transfer mixture to saucepan; cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until it is thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon and an instant-read thermometer registers 180 degrees; 5 to 7 minutes.
• As custard is being frozen in an ice cream maker, fold in caramel sauce, sugar-coated peanuts, and caramel corn. Serve immediately, or freeze in an airtight plastic container until ready to serve. If frozen for more than 4 hours, let ice cream stand at room temperature 15 to 20 minutes before serving.

SWEET CORN ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Make the custard: Whisk the corn, half-and-half, sour cream, sugar and vanilla in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Lightly beat the egg yolks in a medium bowl. Slowly whisk about 1/4 cup of the warm corn mixture into the beaten egg yolks, then pour into the saucepan and return to medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the mixture thickens and coats the spoon, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer the hot custard to a blender and pulse until smooth (keep the filler cap slightly open to let steam escape). Strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl; discard the solids. Stir often until the mixture cools to room temperature. Lightly press plastic wrap directly against the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming. Chill until cold, about 3 hours. (For faster chilling, set the bowl of custard in a bowl of ice water and stir until cold.)
• Freeze the cold custard in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's directions. Transfer to an airtight container and freeze until firm, 2 to 3 hours.
• Scoop the ice cream into bowls. Top with caramel corn or a splash of bourbon, if desired.

Steps:

• In a large cast iron skillet over high heat, grill the ears of corn until charred on all sides, turning every 2 minutes, 10-15 minutes total.
• Remove the corn from the pan, cut the kernels off the cobs, and return the cobs to the skillet. Char on all sides, turning every 2-3 minutes, 10-12 minutes total. Remove the cobs from the pan.
• Cut the cobs in half crosswise and place in a small saucepan. Add ½ cup sugar, the milk, and cream. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat, 5-7 minutes. Transfer to a heatproof bowl or container and cover with plastic wrap or a lid. Steep in the refrigerator for 2 hours, or up to overnight.
• Remove the cobs from the cream mixture, squeezing as much liquid from the cobs back into the bowl as possible.

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and remaining ½ cup sugar. Using a measuring cup or ladle, slowly add the warm cream mixture to the eggs to temper, whisking constantly. Once all of the cream has been added, pour the mixture back into the pot and cook until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 3 minutes. If desired, strain the mixture through the sieve once more to remove any curdled bits. Pour the mixture into a clean heatproof bowl or container and cover with plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, up to overnight.
• Transfer the ice cream base to a loaf pan or container and cover. Freeze for 4 hours, or up to overnight, until solid. (Alternatively, pour the ice cream base into an ice cream maker and mix according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to an airtight container and freeze until ready to serve.)
