Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 3 cups (710 ml) goats milk
- 1/3 cup plus 2 tbsp (100 ml) honey
- 2 egg yolks
- 2 cups (473 ml) cream
- 1/2 tbsp whiskey
- 3/4 cups (177 ml) chopped walnuts
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1/2 cups (118 ml) cherries, cut in half and pitted
Instructions
- Combine goats milk and honey in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring often until thickened (approximately 12-15 minutes).
- Lightly beat egg yolks in a medium bowl. Slowly temper the yolks by whisking in about ½ cup of the hot milk mixture.
- Pour the egg and milk mixture into the saucepan. Continue cooking over medium-low heat for another 5 minutes, stirring constantly until slightly thickened.
- Remove from heat, strain, and let cool. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Add cream to the cold mixture and churn in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- While churning the ice cream, prepare the caramelized walnuts: Combine walnuts and 1 tbsp honey in a nonstick skillet. Cook over medium heat (approximately 338°F/170°C) for about 4 minutes, stirring often. Set aside to cool.
- Once the ice cream is ready, fold in caramelized walnuts and cherries.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use full-fat goat milk and heavy cream.
- If you don’t have whiskey, omit it or substitute with a teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Store the ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
