Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Butterfinger candy bars (crushed)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 15-20 minutes.
While the ice cream is churning, crush the Butterfinger candy bars into small chunks using a rolling pin or food processor. Set aside.
When the ice cream is almost finished churning (about 2-3 minutes before completion), add the crushed Butterfinger candies and let the machine mix them evenly into the base.
Once the ice cream has reached a soft-serve consistency, transfer it to an airtight container.
Freeze the ice cream for at least 4 hours or until it firms up to your desired consistency.
Serve and enjoy your creamy, Butterfinger-packed homemade ice cream!
