Step 1
Beat the
Eggs (2)
together in a medium-size bowl.
Step 2
In a sauce pan, combine
Half and Half (1 1/2 cups)
,
Heavy Cream (3/4 cup)
,
Brown Sugar (3/4 cup)
and
Vanilla Extract (1 Tbsp)
. Bring to a simmer while whisking.
Step 3
Remove from heat once it comes to a simmer. Temper the eggs by adding 1/4 cup of the hot cream into the eggs at a time, then whisking quickly to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
Step 4
Once you’ve added half of the cream to the eggs, slowly pour the tempered egg mixture back into the pot while whisking quickly.
Step 5
Return to heat on medium flame, whisking constantly until the mixer begins to simmer slightly.
Step 6
Strain the custard into a bowl, cover and set aside.
Step 7
Melt the
Butter (1 Tbsp)
over medium flame, then add the
Pecans (1/3 cup)
and cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Toasting the pecans prevents them from turning the ice cream blue.
Step 8
Add the pecans into the custard and mix quickly. Cover the custard with cling film and chill for 4 hours or overnight in the fridge.
Step 9
Churn the ice-cream in your ice cream maker. Remove from the ice-cream maker and freeze until firm.
