Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Keyword: chocolate, ice cream, peanut butter
Author: Sarah Crawford

Ingredients

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 1/4 cup whole milk
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chopped peanut butter cups (I used Reeses)

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk peanut butter and sugar until smooth. Add the milk and mix on low speed until sugar dissolves.
  • Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla. Turn on your ice cream maker. Pour mixture into the frozen bowl, and let churn until thickened, about 25 to 35 minutes.
  • About 5 minutes before the end of churn-time, pour in the chocolate peanut butter cups through the topping chute. Allow the ice cream to continue churning until it reaches a soft-serve consistency (do not over-churn).
  • Transfer ice cream to an airtight container, and place in freezer for 2 hours (or eat right out of the machine, like me!).
