Ingredients

  • 24 ounces evaporated milk 2 cans
  • 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk 1 can
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon rum
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
  • ½ cup cookie butter
  • 12 gingersnap cookies crushed and crumbled

Instructions

  • Whisk together evaporated milk, condensed milk, eggs, rum, salt and vanilla extract in a separate large bowl.
  • Next add butter and brown sugar to a large sized saucepan over medium heat until the brown sugar has evaporated (this process can take up to 10 minutes).
  • Whisk the condensed milk and egg mixture into the large sized saucepan quickly combining all of the ingredients.
  • Add cookie butter to the mixture and stir until it melts into the custard.
  • Continue to cook the custard until it begins to simmer and then remove from heat.
  • Pour the custard into a separate bowl and cover with plastic wrap.
  • Place the custard in the refrigerator and cool for at least 3-4 hours.
  • Add the completely cooled ice cream mixture to your ice cream maker and make according to your manufacturer’s instructions.
  • During the last few minutes of churning, sprinkle crushed gingersnap cookies into mixture. Remove the completed ice cream from the maker and place in a freezer safe container. Freeze for 4-5 hours and serve.

Notes

Storage: Store your cookie butter ice cream in a well-sealed container in the freezer. It's important to make sure to keep out any air as it can easily cause freezer burn or make the ice cream turn a bit icy. Homemade ice cream is best enjoyed within a week of making it. The longer it sits in the freezer, it's texture will degrade.
