Pepernoten Ice Cream made from Scratch

Andréa
Making Pepernoten Ice Cream from scratch from chocolate pepernoten without an ice cream machine is a delicious dessert for Sinterklaas. This ice cream combines the warm, spicy taste of speculaas spice mix with the rich taste of chocolate. The addition of crunchy pepernoten makes the ice cream extra tasty. It is perfect for a pleasant evening with the children and family during the Sinterklaas period.

  • ⅔ cup dark brown sugar

    2¼ cup cream, ½ teaspoon speculaas spice mix, ⅔ cup dark brown sugar
  • Spread the pepernoten over the cream mixture and gently mix them with a spatula.
    3 oz. chocolate pepernoten
  • Pour the mixture into a bowl and let it harden in the freezer for 1 hour. Stir after 1 hour so that the pepernoten are well distributed, and repeat this. Let the ice cream firm up further in the freezer.
  • Tip: Serving with chocolate pepernoten is delicious, but you can also use tangerine parts as a color accent.

NOTES

1. Ice Cream Tips
  • Use cold ingredients so that the ice cream freezes better.
  • Let the ice cream set for at least 3 hours. If it has been in the freezer for 24 hours or more, it may take a few minutes before it is soft enough to scoop easily.
2. Ice cream maker: If you want to use an ice cream maker, follow the manufacturer's instructions to prepare and freeze it. Once the ice cream is frozen, store it in a container in the freezer.
3. Storage: Homemade gingerbread ice cream can be stored for up to one month. If you see ice crystals on the ice cream, you should throw it away and not eat it again.
