Ingredients

  • 567 g ultrafiltered lactose-free whole milk, Fairlife (2 1/3 cups)
  • 225 g heavy cream (scant 1 cup)
  • 122 g amaretto, Disaronno (1/2 cup)
  • 113 g granulated sugar (1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon)
  • 75 g plain roasted almond butter (1/3 cup)
  • 51 g egg yolks (3 large)
  • 34 g light corn syrup, Karo (1 1/2 tablespoons)
  • 26 g dark brown sugar, packed (2 tablespoons)
  • 2 g vanilla extract (1/2 teaspoon)
  • 2 g fine sea salt (heaping 1/4 teaspoon)

Instructions

  • Freeze the Cuisinart bowl at least 24 hours before churning.
  • Warm the milk and cream until steaming. Whisk in the almond butter until fully smooth.
  • Whisk the yolks with the granulated sugar and the dark brown sugar until smooth. Temper the hot dairy in, return to the pot, and cook, stirring constantly, to 170 to 175 F, until the custard coats a spoon.
  • Off the heat, stir in the corn syrup, vanilla, and salt. Strain, then chill fully, at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Stir 122 g of amaretto into the chilled base just before churning.
  • Churn 20 to 25 minutes until thick and soft-serve.
  • Harden in the freezer at least 4 hours. The frozen bowl finishes softer than a compressor, so the hardening step is not optional.
  • Serve with about 2 tablespoons of almond crunch cereal over each scoop, added at the bowl.

Notes

This is a 0.75 linear scale of the Standard formulation at the same base concentration per 1000 g, carrying a slightly higher amaretto dose because a frozen bowl finishes softer than a compressor. The cereal topping is not counted in the nutrition below; see the Standard notes. Nutrition is derived from the ICC composition. Do not run the WPRM calculator over these values.
