Ingredients

Scale

Main Dairy Ingredients:

  • 1.5 cups (360 ml) whole milk
  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream
  • 3 egg yolks

Sweeteners and Flavor Enhancers:

  • 0.5 cup (100 g) sugar
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla

Alcohol Component:

  • 3 ounces (90 ml) Baileys Irish cream

Instructions

  1. Gather all ingredients and essential kitchen equipment, ensuring a chilled blender and clean mixing surfaces for optimal preparation.
  2. Pour cream, milk, sugar, and Baileys Irish Cream into the blender, creating a smooth, harmonious liquid base with consistent texture.
  3. Pulse the mixture thoroughly, ensuring all ingredients are fully integrated and no sugar granules remain, producing a silky, uniform liquid.
  4. Transfer the blended mixture into the chilled ice cream machine, activating the freezing mechanism to slowly incorporate air and develop a creamy consistency.
  5. Allow the machine to churn the liquid, transforming it into a soft, velvety ice cream with gentle, consistent movement for approximately 20-25 minutes.
  6. Once the mixture reaches a soft-serve consistency, carefully transfer the freshly churned ice cream into a freezer-safe container, using a spatula to minimize air pockets.
  7. Smooth the surface with gentle, even strokes to create a uniform appearance and prevent ice crystal formation.
  8. Cover the container securely with a tight-fitting lid, placing it in the freezer’s coldest section for 3-4 hours to achieve the perfect scoopable texture.
  9. Remove the ice cream 5-10 minutes before serving to allow slight softening, ensuring effortless scooping and optimal flavor release.
