Peanut Butter Ice Cream
16 oz peanut butter -- the kind where the only ingredients are peanuts and salt.
1 quart half-and-half
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
Put about a third of the peanut butter in a blender with a third of the dairy. Blend until the blender stops making clunking noises and starts to whir ominously. (Yes, we use chunky peanut butter for this. What other kind are you suggesting exists?) Add a third of the sugar and stir for a bit. Repeat the cycle for half of the remaining peanut butter, dairy and sugar. Repeat to finish.
Refrigerate until chilly, then add vanilla, mix again and put it into your ice cream machine.
E was initially upset that we weren't making chocolate ice cream. Then he was upset that he didn't get to taste the mix again and again and again...
We'll see how it comes out after dinner.
Oh, yes. A standard jar of peanut butter in the US is 18oz, not 16. The other two ounces are the bits skimmed from the top, and will be whipped with sugar and a little butter to produce peanut butter frosting. Do not tell the kids yet...
