For an even smoother ice cream, consider using an immersion blender to blend the peanut butter mixture before chilling. If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can still make this ice cream using the 'no-churn' method. Simply pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and freeze for several hours, stirring every 30 minutes to prevent ice crystals from forming. Feel free to experiment with different types of peanut butter cups or add other mix-ins like chocolate chips or chopped nuts.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
In a medium saucepan, gently heat the milk over medium heat until it begins to steam, being careful not to boil. This should take approximately 4-5 minutes.
02
Step
1 mins
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until light and pale in color.
03
Step
2 mins
Slowly drizzle the warm milk into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs. This prevents them from scrambling. Once combined, pour the mixture back into the saucepan.
04
Step
7 mins
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a spatula, until the mixture thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon. This process usually takes around 5-7 minutes. Be patient and avoid overheating.
05
Step
2 mins
Remove from heat and gradually stir in the peanut butter and vanilla extract until fully incorporated and smooth. About 2 minutes.
06
Step
15 mins
Pour the peanut butter mixture into a clean bowl and let it cool for about 15 minutes at room temperature.
07
Step
1 mins
Once cooled, stir in the heavy cream and the chopped peanut butter cups.
08
Step
25 mins
Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. Typically, this takes about 20-25 minutes.
