Peanut Butter Ice Cream With A Hard Chocolate Shell Recipes

HOMEMADE CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER ICE CREAM RECIPE

Steps:

• Line a large baking sheet with wax paper.
• Mix together powdered sugar and peanut butter (if your peanut butter is solid at room temperature, you may need to warm it slightly in the microwave to be able to add the powdered sugar).
• Drop ½ tsp portions of the mixture onto the wax paper, with ½" space between.
• Put in freezer to harden.
• Add 1 cup cream and cocoa powder to a 2 or 3-quart saucepan. Whisk to combine.
• Bring mixture to a boil. Boil for 15 seconds whisking constantly.
• Remove from heat add peanut butter and chocolate and whisk until smooth.
• Add the additional 1 cup cream. Whisk to combine.
• Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and place a fine metal strainer over it. Set aside
• Add milk sugar and salt to the same saucepan you used to make the cream/chocolate mixture, whisk to combine. Warm over medium heat
• Whisk egg yolks in a medium bowl.
• Once the milk mixture is slightly warm, add ½ cup of warm milk to the beaten egg yolks and whisk to combine. Add the milk/egg mixture back into the saucepan, whisking during the addition.
• Stir the mixture constantly with a spatula until the mixture slightly thickens and lightly coats the spatula.
• Pour the custard through the metal strainer into the other ingredients in the bowl. Stir until combined.
• Discard any residue left on the strainer.
• Add vanilla and stir to combine.
• Chill for at least 3 hours in the refrigerator, or overnight.
• Once the ice cream mixture is completely chilled, churn it for 30-40 minutes in an ice cream maker until it reaches the consistency of frozen yogurt.
• Add half of the churned ice cream to a freezer-friendly container.
• Add half of the frozen peanut butter chunks to the ice cream in the container. Repeat with the second half of the ice cream and peanut butter chunks. Stir lightly to combine.
• Freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.

In another microwave-safe bowl, nuke chocolate and oil, stirring every 30 seconds, until chocolate is melted and smooth, 1 to 2 minutes; let cool to room temperature. Divide frozen peanut butter mixture among 4 bowls. Divide chocolate sauce and peanuts among bowls; let sauce harden before serving.

• This will harden when combined with frozen ingredients.

CHOCOLATE-PEANUT BUTTER SHEET PAN ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Place a rack in center of oven and preheat to 350°F. Generously coat a 18x13" rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray . Melt 1 cup (2 sticks) butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Let cool slightly.
• Whisk together cocoa powder, kosher salt, baking powder, and 1½ cups sugar in a medium bowl. Drizzle in butter; reserve saucepan. Whisk until butter is incorporated, then add vanilla and 2 eggs and whisk until batter is glossy and smooth. Add 1¼ cup flour and whisk until no dry streaks remain.
• Melt remaining ¼ cup (½ stick) butter in reserved saucepan over medium heat. Remove from heat, add peanut butter, and whisk until smooth. Whisk in remaining 1 egg and ½ cup sugar, then add remaining ½ cup flour and whisk until smooth.
• Pour chocolate batter into prepared pan and, using a rubber spatula or your fingers, smooth into an even layer, spreading all the way to the corners and sides; the batter will be quite thin. Dollop peanut butter batter over chocolate batter and press into an even layer. Sprinkle sea salt on top.
• Bake cookies until top looks dry and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 14-17 minutes (cookies will seem too soft, but they'll firm up as they cool). Let cookies cool in baking sheet, then use a sharp knife to cut into 32 pieces (8 across on long sides and 4 down on short sides). Carefully remove pieces from pan with a thin spatula.
• Meanwhile, line a rimmed 13x9" rimmed baking sheet or baking dish with plastic wrap, layering sheets both lengthwise and crosswise and leaving a few inches of overhang on all sides. Transfer softened ice cream to prepared pan and spread into an even layer. Fold overhang up and over the top and freeze ice cream until firm, at least 1 hour.
• When you're ready to assemble sandwiches, use plastic overhang to transfer frozen ice cream block to a cutting board. Working quickly, cut into 16 pieces (4 across on long sides and 4 down on short sides-mirroring half of the cookie slicing method above). Sandwich each ice cream rectangle between 2 cookies, arranging cookies top side out and place on a baking sheet. Freeze until firm all the way through, then transfer sandwiches to an airtight container or individually wrap in foil. Keep frozen until ready to serve.
