Ok. It's the best thing since manna!
I'm so glad that we've continued the "tradition" of making homemade Butterfinger ice cream with our friends during the summer and introducing it to our family {and now it's even my parents' favorite!}. I don't know if our marriage could have survived without it! Here's the recipe!
Homemade Butterfinger Ice Cream
8 eggs
1 1/2 cups of sugar
1 can evaporated milk
1 can sweetened condensed milk
2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 tsp. salt
3 small packs of Butterfingers (pkg of 6)
whole milk
Unwrap the Butterfingers and place in a ziplock bag. Beat the heck out of it until the candy crumbles. Beat eggs on medium speed in a medium size bowl. Add remainder of ingredients and beat until blended thoroughly. Add candy. Pour mixture into ice cream maker and fill to the fill line with whole milk. Freeze & churn until maker slows or stops. Enjoy!
This week, I'll be linking up with these blogs!

This sounds amazing!!! I am wondering if you can add other types of candy and fruit. It would be super tasty with chocolate chips too!! Susan
ReplyDeleteYes, you can add just about anything to this recipe, Susan! Let me know if you try something different. Happy Friday Eve to you!
DeleteTalk about perfection! This looks amazing Laura, when I was pregnant with my oldest I craved Butterfinger blizzards from Dairy Queen! And a couple coincidences I do not like fruit in my ice cream at all and I have an ice cream recipe with cookies and scheduled for a post next Tuesday! great and creative minds think alike lady! ;-)
ReplyDeleteHa ha, Andrea! Your pregnancy story is too funny! Can't wait to see your recipe next week! Stay cool, my friend!

ReplyDeleteI totally agree, Biana! If we're not all screaming ice cream by now with this heat, something is wrong! Thanks for commenting!

DeleteHoly yum! I wonder if I can make any recipe to use in my Cuisanart ice cream maker. May have to try it out...my kids are crazy for butter fingers.
ReplyDeleteOk...this sounds so good right now!! And every other time of the day too... I need to step up my homemade Ice cream skill...and I will definitely try this to help :)
ReplyDeleteOh wow, that looks so good. Just as I start a new diet....
ReplyDeleteI'm dropping by from the Shine Blog Hop. I lLOVE to make homemade ice cream and I LOVE putting things in it. This recipe sounds scrumptious!! I'm putting this on my list to make this summer!!

Thanks for letting me know about your link party, Nina! I'll be sure to check it out!
DeleteWell, I'm a vanilla kind of gal and not into too many textures either. But, I do like Butterfingers and think that ice cream just might be right up my alley. I'll file this recipe away for the next time we make ice cream. Happy new week!
ReplyDeleteYum!! We have never made homemade ice cream, I bet it is delicious! I am a texture girl too, I can't do the fruit in yogurt either and I can't even eat jello because the feeling of it grosses me out!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, thank you, thank you for sharing this at my Grandma Ideas Sharing Time link party. You are such a sweetie! I really appreciate your participation and hope you become a regular participant.
