Q. How to make butterscotch ice cream at home?

Answer

The steps include:Stir vanilla, brown sugar, and butter in a 1- to 2-quart saucepan over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the butter has melted and the sugar has completely dissolved. After adding 1/2 cup of whipping cream, whisk until the liquid is smooth, and turn off the heat.Half-and-half and the remaining one cup of whipped cream should be combined in a pot of between three and four quarts and brought up to a simmer over medium-high heat.Egg yolks are being blended in a bowl at this time. Pour the egg yolk mixture into the cream mixture after whisking in 1/2 cup of the heated cream mixture. During the 2 to 4 minutes it takes for the mixture to gently thicken, stir continuously over low heat. Remove from heat at once.Pour butterscotch mixture into a clean basin after passing through a fine sieve. Stirring periodically, chill for approximately two hours; alternatively cover and chill for up to a day.Follow the manufacturer's directions for freezing the mixture in an ice cream machine. Serve ice cream that has been soft-frozen, or moves it to a sealed container then freeze it until it is hard, which might take up to a week.
