Malted Milk Ball Ice Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Put cream and milk into a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Heat the mixture until hot (do not let simmer), about 2 minutes. Remove mixture from heat; cover, and let stand 30 minutes.
• Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Put yolks, sugar, and salt into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until yolk mixture has tripled in volume and can hold a ribbon on surface for 2 seconds, about 3 minutes.
• Reduce speed to medium. Ladle 1 cup cream mixture in a slow stream into yolk mixture to temper it. Add another cup cream mixture; beat to combine. Transfer mixture to saucepan; cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until it is thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon and an instant-read thermometer registers 180 degrees; 5 to 7 minutes.Stir 1 1/4 cups malted milk powder plus 4 ounces melted milk chocolate into custard.
• Pour custard through a medium-mesh sieve into a bowl set in ice-water bath. Let cool completely, stirring often. Stir 1 cup chopped malted milk balls into churned ice cream.
• Freeze custard in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Serve immediately, or freeze in an airtight plastic container until ready to serve. If frozen for more than 4 hours, let ice cream stand at room temperature 15 to 20 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Put a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan in the freezer to get cold.
• Whisk the milk, egg yolks, sugar, malted milk powder and cocoa powder together in a medium bowl.
• Put the chocolate chips in a large bowl.
• Put the cream in a medium saucepan and heat over medium-high heat until it just starts to simmer. Slowly pour about half of the cream into the bowl with the milk/egg mixture, whisking constantly. Pour all of the liquid from the bowl back into the saucepan and cook, stirring constantly, until the custard reaches 160 degrees F, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into the bowl with the chocolate chips. Let stand 5 minutes, then stir until the chocolate is melted and thoroughly combined. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until very cold, at least 4 hours.
• Churn the custard in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. When the ice cream is ready, add the crushed malt balls and continue to churn until well distributed.
• Spoon about a third of the ice cream into the cold loaf pan and spread evenly with a spatula. Drizzle in half of the chocolate syrup. Add another third of the ice cream, then smooth and drizzle with the remaining syrup. Smooth the remaining ice cream on top, then cover with plastic and freeze until firm, 2 to 3 hours.

Steps:

• Freeze the malted milk balls for 30 minutes. Pulse them in a food processor, or crush them in a sealed plastic bag to make pieces the size of rice grains.
• Place the malted milk powder into a shallow bowl. Scoop out a ball of ice cream and roll it in the malted milk powder until well coated, then roll it in the crumbs made from the malted milk balls. Immediately put it on a plate in the freezer and repeat with remaining ingredients. Firm them up in the freezer for at least 20 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Set aside 1/4 cup malted milk balls for topping. Place ice cream in a large bowl; fold in whipped topping and remaining malted milk balls. Spoon into crusts. Cover and freeze. , Remove from freezer 20 minutes before serving. If desired, garnish with additional whipped topping; top with reserved malted milk balls.

Steps:

• Warm the half-and-half, sugar, and salt in a medium saucepan. In a large bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, vanilla, and malt powder and set a mesh strainer on top.
• In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks. Slowly pour the warm mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly, then scrape the warmed egg yolks back into the saucepan.
• Stir the mixture constantly over medium heat with a heatproof spatula, scraping the bottom as you stir, until the mixture thickens and coats the spatula. Pour the custard through the strainer and whisk it into the malted milk mixture. Stir until cool over an ice bath.
• Chill the mixture thoroughly in the refrigerator, then freeze it in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. As you remove the ice cream from the machine, fold in the chopped malted milk balls.

• Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture begins to steam; watch it carefully and make sure it does not come to a boil.
• While the mixture heats, combine the remaining milk, milk powder, cornstarch, and vanilla extract in a small bowl, and stir until smooth and both of the powders have dissolved.
• Add the cornstarch mixture to the pan, and bring to a boil over low heat, stirring constantly. Whisk the mixture until smooth and simmer over very low heat, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes, or until thickened. If the mixture is lumpy, strain it through a sieve.
• Transfer the hot liquid to a storage container, and press a sheet of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the mixture to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate the mixture uncovered until it is completely chilled (below 40°F).
• Freeze the mixture in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer the soft ice cream to a chilled mixing bowl and fold in the chopped malted milk balls.
• Serve immediately for a soft ice cream, or transfer the mixture to an airtight storage container and freeze until hard. Allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving if frozen solid.
