Ice Cream With Caramel Brioche Croutons Recipes

ICE CREAM WITH CARAMEL BRIOCHE CROUTONS

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and set aside. In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the butter, sugar, and water. Stir until sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes.
• Allow sugar mixture to boil, and caramelize until the syrup is a medium amber color, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat. Add the cubes of brioche a handful at a time, and stir to coat. When all croutons are coated, transfer to prepared baking sheet. Quickly spread croutons so they are not touching. Let cool. To serve, fill four serving dishes with ice cream; garnish with caramel croutons.

BACON-BRIOCHE CROUTONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the brioche in a mixing bowl. In a cast-iron skillet or other heavy ovenproof skillet, cook the bacon over medium-low heat for about 3 minutes, until most of the fat has rendered but the bacon hasn't gotten too brown or crispy. Turn off the heat, add the butter to the pan, and swirl the pan until the butter is fully melted. Pour the bacon with the fat into the mixing bowl with the brioche, sprinkle with the salt and pepper, and toss to coat evenly. Spread the croutons across a baking sheet.
• Bake the croutons, stirring every 2 to 3 minutes, until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. (Note that brioche will toast up a slightly darker color than some other types of bread because of its sugar and egg content.) The croutons can be made up to 2 hours in advance and rewarmed in the oven just before serving.

CARAMEL ICE CREAM

Steps:

• In 2-quart saucepan, heat sugar over medium heat until sugar begins to melt. Stir until sugar is completely dissolved and becomes deep golden brown to amber in color. Remove from heat; gradually stir in 1 cup of the whipping cream (mixture will boil and splatter at first). Heat over low heat, stirring frequently, until any hardened sugar bits dissolve; remove from heat.
• With whisk, stir in remaining 1 cup whipping cream, the milk, egg yolks, salt and vanilla until well mixed. Cook over medium heat just until mixture comes to a boil, stirring constantly (do not allow mixture to continue to boil or it will curdle). Immediately remove from heat.
• Pour milk mixture into chilled bowl. Refrigerate uncovered 2 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally, until room temperature. At this point, mixture can be refrigerated up to 24 hours before completing recipe if desired.
• Pour into 1-quart ice-cream freezer and freeze according to manufacturer's directions.
