Baileys and Malteser Ice Cream

For anyone who watched the recent series of Nigellissma, they would have seen her make coffee ice cream. Well the boy's Granma and her neighbour have been making this ice cream and I have to say it is delicious and yet sooooo easy and simple to make.  They have been adding different flavours and each one has been yummy!

So not to be left out, I used the basics to make the actual ice cream, and then simply added my own choice of ingredients - Baileys and Maltesers (yes, another recipe incorporating Maltesers!).

Let me show you how to make the easiest ice cream that packs a punch of flavour!

Baileys And Malteser Ice Cream

Serves 8

(makes 1 litre)

You Will Need

1/2 tin of condensed milk (175g)

300ml double cream

60ml Baileys Irish Cream

1 extra large grab bag Maltesers

Method

Whip the cream, condensed milk and Baileys in a large bowl until soft peaks form

Set aside about 30 Maltesers

Then placing the bag on a tea towel, and sealing it bash with a rolling pin to roughly smash the chocolate

Take a 1 litre tub which is suitable for the freezer and line it with grease proof paper or cling film and scatter some crushed maltesers along the bottom

Then leaving about a handful in the bag, tip the rest of the crushed maltesers into the creamy mixture and stir through

Then add the ice cream mix to the tub on top of the scattered chocolate and smooth over to make the top even. 

Then decorate with the whole Maltesers (there may even be one or two that find their way to your mouth *ahem*) and scatter some more crushed ones over the top.

Place your lid on top and put in the freezer overnight (at least 6 hours)

And that is that!! No stirring/churning required :)

Then either serve it as a complete dessert by carefully removing it

 and dish up and enjoy your Baileys & Malteser Ice Cream in a slice

or if you want to save it all for yourself, then simply cut off and slice and return the rest to the freezer

mmmmm deeeeelicious!
