Gemma's Bigger Bolder Baking Homemade Ice Cream Halloween Flavors
Hi Bold Bakers!
Halloween is a great time to go over-the-top and have creative fun with your baking and
desserts.
So I thought this week we would make some Halloween-themed ice cream using my favorite
two ingredient No Machine Ice Cream recipe.
So let's get started!
We're going to start out by making my ice cream base.
Now I know a lot of you have already made it and perfected it but for those of you who
are new or sometimes if you have trouble with it, we're just going to make it really quickly.
I make my Ice Cream base on my stand mixer but you can also use an electric hand mixer
or you can mix it by hand.
You just need a lot of elbow grease.
Our first important ingredient is good whipping cream.
Now I know cream is different in every country so I'm going to put a list on BiggerBolderBaking.com
of what different creams you can use depending on where you are and also the recipe and all
of the instructions.
Now turn on the machine to medium high speed and whip up your cream until soft peaks.
Ok, perfect.
It's been three minutes and this is what your whipped cream at this stage should look like.
Nice and soft.
Not too stiff.
If you make it too stiff then it will actually split before you add in the condensed milk
so whip it less rather than more.
Our next important ingredient is cold condensed milk.
Now I use fat free or sugar free because it's a lot less sweet.
And we're simply going to pour this into our whipped cream.
Now if you can't buy condensed milk in your country then I'm also going to put a recipe
on my website of how you can actually make it yourself.
Now all you do is whip up these two ingredients together until nice and stiff.
If you don't eat dairy then I have a coconut ice cream that will work really well with
all of these flavors.
And that's your ice cream base.
It just takes a few minutes.
And for those of you out there who have already made it, you know how quick and easy it is.
Look at that.
Nice and stiff.
It's not too over whipped.
This is going to make great ice cream.
Our first ice cream is one of the most requested on Bigger Bolder Baking and that is Bubblegum
Ice Cream.
In a bowl, add in your ice cream base.
To get that extra taste of bubblegum, I use bubblegum flavor.
I'll put a link of where I got this on my website but if you don't want to buy this
then don't worry because mixing in the bubblegum will actually give you the flavor of bubblegum
anyways.
Because we're kind of doing a ghoulish Halloween ice cream, I'm going to add a little bit of
good quality food coloring into this to give it that nice extra effect.
And then just mix this in until you get your desired color.
Our next important ingredient to our ice cream is bubblegum eyeballs.
Look at those.
How creepy do they look...and they smell amazing.
I reminds me of when I was a kid.
They will make a great addition to our ice cream.
Add in as many bubblegum eyeballs as you like.
I try and do one per scoop.
I have my tub ready so I can add my ice cream straight in.
It should ooze out all the way to the top.
Once your ice cream is in the tub, I like to take extra bubblegum, stick it on top and
have all the yes looking out at you extra creepy.
For a little extra bloody added effect, I'm going to pipe on some raspberry puree on top
of our ice cream.
It's like bloody veins.
Blahhh.
Do a little bit down the side of the tub.
Blahhh.
As always, in true Big & Bold fashion we're going to add a Homemade sticker on to our
ice cream.
Or should I say our Bubblegum Eye Scream.
Check it out.
This is a serious Halloween Ice Cream.
This ice cream takes around four to six hours to freeze and will last in your freezer for
up to six weeks.
That's if you don't eat it long before then.
Our next ice cream flavor is one that is not just for Halloween but also for the fall in
general and it's Pumpkin Ice Cream.
In your bowl, add in your ice cream base.
Now add in some tinned pumpkin puree.
Not pumpkin pie filling.
That's different.
To this we're going to add some pumpkin pie spice.
This definitely makes it taste like the holidays.
Now just whisk it all together.
If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can just use cinnamon.
This is Kevin's favorite ice cream.
Once it's mixed, put it straight into your ice cream tub.
It even smells good already.
Because this is a Halloween Ice Cream, we're going to make it a little bit extra spooky
on top and I'm going to draw a spiderweb on top with melted white chocolate.
Pipe a spiral in the center of your ice cream all the way to the edge.
Then take a toothpick and gently run it through the chocolate creating a spiderweb.
Do this all the way around the top.
Once that's done, of course we're going to finish it off with our sticker.
I hope you enjoy this Carved Pumpkin Ice Cream.
I'm really looking forward to trying this one but I'm going to pop it into the freezer
now and we're going to move on to our next flavor.
Our next devilishly decadent ice cream is one that's been requested for a long time
and it's Brownie & Chocolate.
In your bowl, add your cooled melted chocolate.
You want to make sure it's not too hot so it doesn't melt your ice cream.
To this add a little bit of your ice cream base.
Then we're just going to whisk these two ingredients together just to incorporate them.
Do it nice and fast.
And then we'll add in the rest of the ice cream base.
This method is called introducing.
Did you know it was this fast and easy to make chocolate ice cream?
To this base I'm going to crumble in some homemade brownie.
If you're looking for a brownie recipe, I have a really good one on my channel so you
should check that out.
Just crumble it all in there.
Big and small lumps.
So you get it all the way through your ice cream.
Once your brownie is in there mix them all together.
Look at those big chunks of brownie.
It's definitely sinful.
Now just pour your ice cream into your container.
I didn't fill it all the way up because we're going to crumble some brownies on top to create
a brownie graveyard.
You can not have a brownie graveyard without yummy gummy worms.
Stick your gummy worms all over your ice cream kind of sneaking out of the soil.
I don't know a kid that would not love this for Halloween.
Or even an adult for that matter.
I call this one Death By Chocolate because it's not a bad way to go.
These Big & Bold Halloween Ice Creams are ghoulishly good and easy to make for any Halloween
party this year.
