Creamy Iced Coffee
Creamy iced coffee tastes especially good when made at home: try the recipe from Spoonsparrow.
Ingredients
- 2 scoops vanilla ice cream
- 200 ml cold coffee
- 50 g whipped cream
- 1 tsp vanilla sugar
- 10 ml coffee liqueur
- 0.5 l milk
- 0.25 l whipped cream
- 1 Vanilla bean
- 7 egg yolks
- 200 g sugar
Instructions
-
1.
Whip the cream with vanilla sugar until stiff peaks form. Place the ice cream scoops in a glass, pour over the cold coffee, add the whipped cream and drizzle with liqueur.
-
2.
Slice the vanilla bean lengthwise, scrape out the seeds and stir them into the cream-milk mixture; bring to a boil.
-
3.
Beat the egg yolks with sugar until creamy.
-
4.
Stir the boiling milk into the yolk mixture, return everything to the pot, remove the vanilla bean and cook over low heat while stirring with a wooden spoon until the custard thickens—never let it boil.
-
5.
Strain the vanilla custard through a sieve, cool in an ice bath while stirring occasionally.
-
6.
Pour the chilled custard into an ice cream maker and churn until ready. (If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour into a shallow metal bowl and freeze, stirring repeatedly during the first hour).
-
7.
The result is about 1 liter of ice cream—approximately 16 servings (about 5 cl each). Creamy iced coffee is simple: mix coffee with liqueur and vanilla sugar, add two scoops of ice cream, and serve garnished with whipped cream.
