Ferrero Rocher & M&M’s Cookie Dough Ice Cream Extravaganza
1. Prepare the Cookie Dough:
- In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the milk and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
- Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until a smooth dough forms.
- Fold in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Cover the cookie dough and refrigerate while preparing the ice cream.
2. Make the Ice Cream Base:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until the sugar is dissolved.
- Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
3. Add Mix-Ins:
- Once the ice cream reaches the desired consistency, gently fold in the chopped Ferrero Rocher chocolates, remaining M&M’s, and chunks of the chilled cookie dough.
4. Finalize and Freeze:
- Transfer the ice cream mixture into a freezer-safe container, spreading it evenly.
- Press a sheet of parchment paper or plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the ice cream to prevent ice crystals from forming.
- Freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
5. Serve and Enjoy:
- Scoop the Ferrero Rocher & M&M’s Cookie Dough Ice Cream into bowls or cones.
- Garnish with extra M&M’s or chocolate shavings if desired.
