Ingredients

Instructions

  • Before you start to mix this up, be sure you've pre-frozen the ice cream canister that goes with your ice cream maker; if you don't, your ice cream won't freeze.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole milk and sugar 'til the sugar dissolves, about 1-2 minutes.
  • Whisk in the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and sea salt.
  • Turn on the ice cream freezer, and pour the mixture into the freezer bowl with the churn paddle in place.
  • Then place the cover on top, and let it mix 'til it thickens, about 20-25 minutes.
  • About 5 minutes before the mixing is completed, add the crushed Butterfinger bars through the top of the ice cream maker, and let the candy mix in completely.
  • Once the candy is all mixed in, turn off the machine, and scoop the soft-serve ice cream into bowls for serving; or if desired, scoop it into an airtight container, and place it in the freezer for 2-3 hours to firm up more. Then serve when ready.

Notes

*I recommend freezing the crushed Butterfinger Bars ahead of time, so they don't warm and melt the ice cream when you add them.
