I decided to start tracking my ice cream endeavors. So many of them start with David Lebovitz’s The Perfect Scoop, which I feel is a perfect book! This recipe is no different. Please check out the book here.
This ice cream tastes like an Italian panettone and is one of the most rich decadent frozen treats I have made. Flavors of cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, and honey perfume and flavor the custard. At the end, roasted almonds and candied citrus peel are mixed in for more favor and texture. This is certainly not something you are ever going to find in your run-of-the-mill ice cream shop.
While making the custard I realized that if I bumped up the spice profile, added a little black tea, and left out the mix-ins, I would have a blissful chai tea flavor. I highly recommend this flavor of ice cream if you want something a little off the beaten path but so scrumptious that everyone will love it.
