Eggless Butterscotch Ice Cream Preparation

If preparing butterscotch syrup from scratch then melt the butter in low flame.
Later add the brown sugar, salt and heavy cream and stir the mixture in medium flame for 3-4 minutes or until it’s well blended.
When the mixture is shiny and thick and reaches right consistency do remove form flame and place on cold water if necessary and don’t over cook.
Chill/Freeze the bowl going to use for whipping the cream.
Boil the milk in medium flame, when it starts foaming simmer it for another 3-5 minutes.
Once done switch off the flame add the butterscotch morsels (Pic 1) and stir till morsels melts completely.
If using homemade butterscotch sauce then mix it here with warm milk not hot milk instead of morsels.
Keep it aside and let it cool completely (Pic 2).
Meanwhile whip the heavy whipping cream till soft peaks attained.
Now gradually add completely cooled butterscotch mixture (Pic 3), brown sugar and mix well.
Close it tight with lid or cling film and freeze it for at least 4 hours.
Now make the praline, grease the sauce pan with butter and add both sugars.
In low flame keep stirring till sugar caramelizes well.

Once it comes to thick consistency, add broken cashew nuts/Almonds (pic 4) and spread it over greased plate (Pic 5).
Let it set in room temperature; it takes 30minutes minimum to set.
Meanwhile bring the ice cream to room temperature.
Once set break it in to little chunks, as my kids feel hard to swallow i added few drops of milk and churn in the food processor.
Now add it to the lightly melted ice cream (Pic 6), just give a gentle stir and don’t overwork.
Again freeze it for another 2 hours minimum and serve it in ice cream cones/wafers!!!
Also if you have any leftover caramelized sugar syrup or store bought butterscotch sauce/chocolate syrup, top it over the ice cream and serve…
