Biscoff Ice Cream

This easy-to-make Biscoff ice cream is loaded with flavor and completely irresistible. 

You scream, I scream, we all scream for ice cream! But not just any ice cream. Biscoff ice cream!

Yes, I’m straying from cakes once again, but it’s for good reason. This Biscoff ice cream is utterly divine and needs to be on your list of to-do’s THIS weekend.

I first made this ice cream a couple weeks ago for our 4th of July party. Truth be told, I had actually never made ice cream before this party. (Can you believe that?!). The 4th of July is one of my husband’s favorite holidays. He grew up going to San Diego every summer to visit his grandma for the Fourth. And every year, they made homemade peach ice cream together. The tradition carried on, and any 4th of July we’ve spent at my in-laws, we’ve had homemade peach ice cream to celebrate.

Since we weren’t with Ryan’s family this year, I was determined to establish the tradition in our family too.

GETTING STARTED

The first step in my mission was to buy an ice cream maker! Honestly, I’m not sure how I’ve never owned one of these bad boys before. Ice cream is my husband’s dessert of choice. I’ve clearly been slacking as a wife 😉

I read reviews for a few ice cream makers and landed on the Cuisinart 2-Quart Ice Cream Maker. It churns ice cream in 25 minutes and has one knob to turn it on.

Sold! Doesn’t get easier than that.

The one downside is that you have to remember to freeze the bowl for at least 12 hours before you make your ice cream. A friend gave me the tip to keep the bowl in my freezer whenever I’m not using it. So, when I’m done making a batch of ice cream, I simply rinse the bowl and put it right back into my freezer for next time.

You should also note that after the 25 minutes of churning, the ice cream will be soft. It’s totally still edible and delicious, but if you like hard ice cream like we do, put it in the freezer for an hour or two.

THE RECIPE

After buying the ice cream maker, I was ready to decide on my ice cream menu for the party. I already had peach ice cream on my list, and then quickly added strawberry because Avery requested “pink” ice cream. With two fruity flavors picked out, it was clearly time for some richer, more decadent options! Chocolate ice cream was a no-brainer and since my Biscoff Cake is always a crowd-pleaser, I added Biscoff ice cream to the lineup as well.

I love ice cream that is super creamy and rich, so there’s a ton of heavy cream in here. But don’t let that scare you into using less cream and more milk. It won’t be the same. Cream is your friend. Embrace it!

I also added a full cup of Biscoff spread to the ice cream while it finished churning to create a strong base of Biscoff flavor. I then tossed in some broken cookie pieces to add a little texture.

Not one to shy away from extra calories, I then layered in more Biscoff spread and cookies before freezing the ice cream to harden a bit more.

This ice cream was the hit of our 4th of July party! It was the first flavor gone and the one everyone kept talking about throughout the night.

I made it again this week for another event and served it with my Caramel Banana Biscoff Cake. A total crowd-pleaser!

Enjoy!
