q.b.
Biscuit ice cream is one of the most popular summer snacks for adults and children, small and practical single-portion sweets made up of two layers of fragrant cocoa biscuits which enclose a creamy filling of homemade ice cream inside : for a result that is crunchy and soft to the bite that will conquer everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In our version we made shortbread biscuits by working flour, butter, eggs, sugar and bitter cocoa powder together in a bowl . The smooth and homogeneous dough prepared, after resting in the fridge, is then rolled out to 1\/2 cm thick, then cut out with the special cookie cutters and finally baked in the oven at 180\u00b0C for about 10 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the meantime, a mixture of milk, cream, icing sugar and vanilla extract is heated on the stove, the saucepan is transferred to a bowl with water and ice, to quickly lower the temperature, and finally the cold mixture is poured in the basket of an ice cream maker, waiting for the necessary time for it to gel: thus, in about half an hour, you will obtain a fragrant and irresistible fiordilatte ice cream , to be used plain or enriched as desired with chocolate drops and black cherries in syrup .<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once the biscuits have been filled, you can also serve the “sweet tiles” as a delicious and refreshing after meal and then cover the edges, for a more spectacular result, with chopped pistachios or crumbled cocoa beans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To speed things up, you can buy ready-made biscuits, such as saiwa gold or digestives, and thus pack fun mini fingers to nibble on your fingertips as a delicious snack, or you can try your hand at a two-taste version, combining your favorite ice creams together : hazelnut , pistachio , cream , coffee \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you don’t have an ice cream maker , you can transfer the milk and cream mixture into a special tray and then let it cool in the freezer for at least 6 hours: the only precaution will be to take it out of the freezer from time to time and then work it with the prongs of a fork to break up ice crystals .<\/p>\n\n\n\n
