I don’t know if Ben & Jerry or Häagen-Dazs have ever offered a Peanut Butter & Jelly Ice-Cream, if they haven’t they should. Very, very yummy!
This was my first attempt at Peanut Butter & Jelly Ice-Cream and I’m pretty much satisfied with the result. I don’t think I’m going to tinker with the recipe and will certainly add it to my list of make again ice-creams. The recipe made about 1 litre. It’s made as two separate elements which are then combined at the end.
Firstly, the Peanut Butter Ice-Cream Ingredients:
250ml Whole milk
250ml Double cream
130g Granulated sugar
130g Smooth peanut butter
Put the cream, milk and sugar into a saucepan and bring to the boil. Remove from the heat and whisk in the peanut butter making sure that it’s completely dissolved. Leave to cool.
Ingredients for the Strawberry Jelly
400g Fresh strawberries
3tbs Water
75g granulated sugar
2tsp Cornflour mixed with 1tbs Water
Chop the strawberries up and mix in a saucepan with the sugar and water. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 10 minutes before mashing everything up. Add the cornflour and bring back to the boil for a moment. Leave to cool and then chill in the fridge.
Make the Peanut Butter Ice-Cream using whatever method you like (freeze/stir/freeze etc or by using an ice-cream maker/stirrer). Put ‘dollops’ of ice-cream into a plastic container along with ‘dollops’ of the Strawberry Jelly so that one is interspersed with the other but not stirred together. Place in the freezer to fully freeze.
