Cookie Dough Ice Cream Recipe
Description
The process begins with heat-treating all-purpose flour to eliminate bacteria risk, ensuring food safety in the raw cookie dough. The dough itself is made by blending melted butter, brown sugar, vanilla extract, and flour, then folding in chopped chocolate chips. Chilling the dough before adding to ice cream helps the pieces hold their shape during mixing.
The ice cream base mixes heavy cream, half and half, sugar, and vanilla extract before churning in an ice cream maker. Cookie dough chunks are folded in during the final minutes of churning to distribute evenly without melting into the base.
Frozen in an airtight container, the ice cream maintains a smooth consistency when stored below 0°F. The notes emphasize the importance of proper flour heat treatment, temperature control for storage, use of an ice cream maker, and storage tips for maintaining the ideal texture over up to three weeks.
