    List of Ingredients




    Brown Sugar & Toasted Almond Ice Cream (healthy)


    1 1/2 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
    1 tablespoon water
    2 1/2 cup low-fat milk, divided
    3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    3 large egg yolks
    1 - 12 oz can non-fat evaporated milk
    1 tablespoon vodka or rum
    1/2 cup chopped almonds, toasted (see TIP below) & cooled

    Recipe




    Sprinkle the gelatin over the water in a small bowl.

    Let it stand, stirring once or twice, while you make the base for the ice cream.

    Pour 1 1/2 cup of milk into a large saucepan.

    Whisk in the brown sugar & cinnamon.

    Heat over medium heat, whisking often, until steaming.

    Whisk the egg yolks & evaporated milk in a medium bowl until combined.

    Whisking constantly, gradually add the hot milk mixture to the egg yolk mixture until blended.

    Return the mixture to the pan & cook over medium heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the back of the spoon is lightly coated; 3 to 5 minutes.

    Do not bring to a boil or the custard will curdle.

    Strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean large bowl (preferably stain-less steel).

    Add the softened gelatin & whisk until melted.

    Whisk in the remaining 1 cup of milk & the vodka (or rum).

    Cover & refrigerate until chilled, at least 3 hours or overnight.

    Whisk the ice cream mixture & pour it into the canister of an ice cream maker.

    Freeze according to the manufacturer's directions.

    During the last 5 minutes of freezing, add the almonds.

    If desired, place the ice cream in the freezer to firm up before serving.
