Ingredients

• 2 cups Heavy cream
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 1 cup White chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons Espresso powder
• 4 pieces Large egg yolks
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, and granulated sugar. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar completely dissolves and the mixture is just about to simmer (do not bring to a full boil).

Step 2

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the white chocolate chips until completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks until they are pale and slightly thickened.

Step 4

Gradually temper the egg yolks by slowly adding about 1/2 cup of the warm cream mixture to the yolks while whisking constantly to prevent curdling.

Step 5

Pour the tempered egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining cream mixture. Stir constantly over low heat for about 5-7 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon. Do not let it boil.

Step 6

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the espresso powder and vanilla extract until well incorporated.

Step 7

Pour the custard mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl to remove any cooked egg bits. Let the custard cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.

Step 8

Cover the cooled custard with plastic wrap, ensuring the wrap touches the surface directly to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, until thoroughly chilled.

Step 9

Transfer the chilled custard to an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes, until the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency.

Step 10

Transfer the churned ice cream into an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to firm up before serving.

Step 11

Serve scooped into bowls or cones, and enjoy your homemade Mocha Bianca Ice Cream!
