Stout Ice Cream

Stout Ice Cream

by Lori Fredrich of Burp!

1 cup whole milk

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/4 tsp salt

4 egg yolks

1 cup cream

1 1/4 cups oatmeal stout

1 tsp vanilla

optional: Irish Whiskey Caramel Sauce

Warm milk, sugar, and salt in a medium saucepan, stirring to dissolve the sugar.

Whisk egg yolks and slowly incorporate warm milk mixture, whisking constantly to combine. Return egg/milk mixture to the pan and stir constantly over medium heat until the custard coats the back of a spoon.

Meanwhile, mix together the cream, stout, and vanilla and place it in a large bowl with a strainer over the top. Pour finished custard through the strainer and stir into the cream mixture.

Chill thoroughly and then freeze according to your ice cream machine's instructions.

Top with Irish Whiskey Caramel Sauce before serving.
