Ingredients

  • 200 ml heavy whipping cream cold, (36% milkfat)
  • 200 ml whole milk
  • 50 g White Rabbit candies about 10 pieces, unwrapped
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 15 g granulated sugar
  • teaspoon fine sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Pour cold heavy cream into a freezer-safe container. Set aside.
  • In a small saucepan over low heat, combine White Rabbit candies and milk, stirring until fully melted and smooth.
  • In a heat-safe bowl, whisk together egg yolks with sugar, salt and vanilla until pale and lightened.
  • Gradually pour the warmed White Rabbit-milk mixture into the egg yolk mixture, while constantly whisking (known as tempering the eggs).
  • Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook over low-medium heat, until the custard thickens.
  • When you can draw a line on the back of a spatula or wooden spoon, the ice cream mixture is ready.
  • Remove from heat.
  • Pour the mixture through a sieve into the cold heavy cream.
  • Give the mixture a stir and cover.
  • Place into the refrigerator to chill for at least 6-8 hours, or overnight.
