RECIPE: CUSTARD ICE CREAM!

Bird’s Custard Ice Cream

If you grew up with Bird’s, this is pure nostalgia in a tub: silky custard ice cream you can scoop straight from the freezer. It uses Bird’s Custard Powder for that unmistakable flavour, plus a cheeky splash of vodka to keep things spoon-ready. No ice-cream maker needed.

Ingredients:

1/3 cup Bird’s Custard Powder

1/2 cup sugar

2 cups milk (16 US fl oz / ~480 ml)

1 tsp vanilla extract (5 ml)

1¼ cups | 10 fl oz heavy cream (UK: use double cream)

1/8 cup caramel or unflavoured vodka (1 US fl oz / 30 ml)

Method:

1. Make a paste. In a saucepan, mix the custard powder with a little of the milk until smooth.

2. Cook the custard. Add the remaining milk, sugar and vanilla to a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook gently, whisking, until thickened and it lightly coats the back of a spoon. Don’t let it boil too hard.

3. Chill. Pour into a clean bowl. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface to prevent a skin. Refrigerate until completely cold.

4. Whip the cream. Using a mixer, whisk the cream with the vodka to stiff peaks.

5. Combine. When the custard has set, whisk it until smooth, then whisk it into the cream until evenly combined.

6. Freeze. Transfer to an airtight, freezer-safe container. Freeze for at least 5 hours, or until scoopable.
