Ben & Jerry's Heath Bar Crunch Ice Cream

Ben & Jerry's Heath Bar Crunch Ice Cream

4 Heath Bars
2 large Eggs
3/4 cup Sugar
2 cup Heavy or whipping cream
1 cup Whole milk
2 tsp Vanilla
Using a sharp knife, cut the candy bars into 1/2 to 1 inch chunks. You
should have about 1 cup. Place the chucks in a bowl, cover and freeze.
Whisk the egg in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes. Whisk
in the sugar, a little at a time, then continue to whisk until completely
blended, about 1 minute more. Pour in the cream, milk, vanilla, and whisk
to blend. Transfer the mixture to ice cream maker and freeze following
manufacturer instructions. After the ice cream stiffens (about 2 minutes
before it is done) add the candy, then continue freezing until the ice
cream is ready. Makes generous 1 quart.


Variation: COFFEE HEATH BAR CRUNCH: Omit vanilla and substitute 3 Tbs. good quality freeze-dried coffee. Add 2 Tbs coffee with the cream and milk, and
add the remaining 1 Tbs coffee with the candy( after the ice cream stiffens.)
