Turkish Coffee Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Recipes

TURKISH COFFEE ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Bring the water and sugar to a boil in a saucepan over high heat until the sugar dissolves and the syrup turns clear. Pour into a double boiler along with the cream and milk. Whisk until the syrup has dissolved into the milk, then whisk in the egg yolks and instant coffee until completely incorporated.
• Set the double boiler insert over (but not touching) a pan of gently simmering water. Cook, stirring constantly until the custard has thickened and will stick to the back of a spoon, about 10 minutes. Pour through a mesh strainer into a bowl and stir in the coffee grounds. Refrigerate several hours until cold.
• Pour into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's directions.

TURKISH COFFEE ICE CREAM

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the espresso powder, boiling water, and ground cardamom. Let cool to room temperature.
• Using a stand mixer, an immersion blender, or a handheld electric mixer, beat the cream and condensed milk until the mixture is thick and airy, sorta like loosely whipped cream minus the soft peaks, 2 to 5 minutes. Stir in the cardamom coffee mixture.
• If using an ice cream maker, dump the mixture into the maker and process according to the manufacturer's instructions, about 20 minutes. Serve the ice cream immediately if you like a soft-serve consistency or transfer the ice cream to a container, cover, and freeze for at least a few hours if a harder consistency is desired.If not using an ice cream maker, scrape the ice cream into a container of some sort, cover with plastic wrap or a lid, and freeze until softly firm, sorta like soft-serve consistency, 3 to 5 hours, or very firm, up to 24 hours. It's that simple. The ice cream really doesn't need to be churned or even stirred.

TURKISH COFFEE CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Warm milk, coffee, and cardamom together in a saucepan over low heat. Stir in sugar until dissolved. Make sure milk does not come to a boil.
• Remove saucepan from heat and stir in cream and vanilla extract. Chill until completely cold, at least 1 hour.
• Pour mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions, about 20 minutes. Add chocolate chips in the last few minutes of churning. Transfer to an airtight container and freeze until firm, about 4 hours.

COFFEE CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Leave the ice cream at room temperature for about 15 minutes, until it's soft enough to scoop but not melted. Place 4 cookies, flat sides up, on a cutting board and, using a 2 1/2-inch standard ice cream scoop, put one round scoop of ice cream on each cookie. Place 4 more cookies, flat sides down, on top of each scoop of ice cream and press lightly until the ice cream is at the edge of the cookies.
• Put the toffee bits on a small plate and, working quickly, roll the edge of the sandwiches in the toffee bits, using your hand to fill in the spaces with toffee. Place the sandwiches immediately in the freezer and freeze until firm. Wrap well and keep frozen until ready to serve.

TURKISH DELIGHT ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Let cce cream soften just a bit. I used a plain supermarket vanilla (2L)and added a more rich vanilla bean ice cream (1L) just to thicken the mix. The best texture is not liquid, but soft enough to fold. If it gets too liquid it will refreeze with crystals of ice. You might need to beat it to fluff it up before re-freezing if that happens. Half freeze and beat it some more!
• Chop Turkish Delight into pieces (I made them eighths).
• Open the wine! Really a cup might be a bit much--add in generous sloshes!
• Take a large mixing bowl add 1 litre of ice cream in large dollopy bits.
• Fold in a good slosh of wine.
• Add more ice cream and more wine.
• If you are having liquefying problems now would be a good time to beat, freeze, beat and re-freeze. But if you are anything like me and flavour is more important than texture continue it will still be scrummy!
• Fold in Turkish Delight, then nuts.
• Refreeze. If you want to be posh, refreeze in a fancy bowl then you can turn it out on a plate to serve in slices.
• Serve. You could garnish this with more chopped Turkish Delight.
