Homemade Moose Tracks Ice Cream Recipe

1. Prepare the Vanilla Ice Cream Base:
In a mixing bowl, whisk together heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This usually takes about 20–25 minutes.
2. Add the Mix-Ins:
During the last 5 minutes of churning, fold in the chopped peanut butter cups and chocolate chips (if using).
Once the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency, turn off the machine.
3. Layer with Fudge Sauce:
In a freezer-safe container, layer the ice cream and chocolate fudge sauce. Add a layer of ice cream, drizzle with fudge sauce, and repeat until all ingredients are used.
Use a knife or skewer to swirl the fudge sauce gently through the ice cream for a marbled effect.
4. Freeze:
Cover the container with a lid or plastic wrap and freeze for at least 2–4 hours, or until the ice cream firms up.
Serving Tips:
Serve your homemade Moose Tracks ice cream in bowls, cones, or even with a drizzle of extra fudge sauce for an over-the-top treat.
Add whipped cream and a cherry for a sundae-style presentation.
Storage:
Store the ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. To make it easier to scoop, let it sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before serving.
Customizations:
Peanut Butter Alternative: Swap peanut butter cups with caramel-filled chocolates or cookie chunks.
Vegan Version: Use coconut cream, almond milk, and vegan peanut butter cups.
Extra Swirl: Add a peanut butter swirl along with the fudge for double the flavor.
This homemade Moose Tracks ice cream is rich, creamy, and packed with irresistible flavors. It’s a perfect treat for family gatherings or anytime you want to indulge in a classic dessert. 🍦🍫🥜
