Time 2h20m

Yield 4 cups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 egg yolks
1/2 pint milk
1/2 pint double cream or 1/2 pint heavy cream
4 ounces sugar or 4 ounces caster sugar
6 ounces licorice toffee sweets
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Steps:

  • Place the licorice toffee sweets into a saucepan and stir in the milk. Bring the pan slowly up to boiling point, stirring all the time and be sure that the toffees completely melt.
  • This can take 5 to 10 minutes. Place to one side.
  • In a separate bowl, beat and mix together the egg yolks and sugar until thick.
  • Pour the hot milk and toffees mixture into the combined egg yolks and sugar, stirring whilst doing so. Then pour this back into the pan and heat gently; keep stirring until the custard thickens - DO NOT BRING TO THE BOIL OR IT WILL PROBABLY CURDLE. When you can see a film form over the back of your spoon it's time to remove the saucepan from the heat. Leave to cool.
  • When the custard base is cold stir in the cream (and the vanilla extract if you want to use it).
  • Transfer the whole mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions.
