Instructions
- In a saucepan combine the milk, cream, and 1/2 cup sugar over medium heat. Cook until the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl whip the egg yolks with the remaining sugar using an electric mixer until the eggs have become thick and pale yellow, about 4 minutes. Pour 1/2 cup of the warm milk and cream mixture into the egg mixture and stir. This brings the temperature of the mixture up so that when we add it to the saucepan it doesn't scramble.
- Add the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan. Cook over very low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture becomes thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon, about 7 to 10 minutes. The mixture will still be runny but slightly thicker.
- Place a strainer over a medium bowl and pour the warm custard mixture through the strainer. Stir in the vanilla and hazelnut spread until it dissolves. Chill mixture completely before pouring into an ice cream maker and follow manufacturer's instructions to freeze. Note- the gelato will still be soft after mixing in the ice cream maker. You can add your toppings to the last couple of minutes of mixing the ice cream in the ice cream maker to incorporate them before freezing or just wait to use them on top after it is completely frozen.
- To serve, scoop gelato into serving bowls and top with hazelnuts, pecans, or other toppings.
