Directions

  • Heating the base
    Pour the milk, cream, sugar and powdered milk (if using) into a saucepan. Heat gently over medium heat, stirring until smooth.
  • Making the custard (egg option)
    Whisk the egg yolks in a bowl. Gradually pour a little of the hot mixture over them to temper them, then return the mixture to the saucepan. Bring to the boil over low heat, stirring constantly, until the cream coats the back of a spoon.

    Remove the pan from the heat and leave to cool for a few minutes. Stir in the Grand Marnier and vanilla or orange zest. Mix thoroughly.

  • Ice turbining
    Take the jar out of the freezer and leave it to stand for 5-10 minutes at room temperature. Insert it into the Ninja Creami and start the Ice Cream.
  • Adjust texture
    If the ice cream seems too firm or slightly grainy, run a cycle. Re-spin to obtain a perfectly smooth, creamy texture.

Notes

  • Add a small drizzle of Grand Marnier just after the first mixing cycle, then run a quick re-spin for a delicious marble effect and even more intense fragrance.
