Nutella Ice Cream Without an Ice Cream Maker

Nutella Ice Cream Without an Ice Cream Maker

Recipe with beaters and also with the Bimby, using pasteurized eggs.
For the love of my grandchildren, here’s everything for them.
Who would’ve thought that at my age I would become a sweet tooth?
I was little, and in my grandmother Maria’s pastry shop, they made semifreddo ice creams and truffles.
I grew up with the smell of vanilla and anise instead of baby cologne. A flavor dear to me was Gianduia.
With this Nutella Ice Cream without an ice cream maker, I managed to get close with this recipe by replacing gianduia with Nutella, which makes the mixture elastic and very similar to the flavors of the ice cream shops of the past.

  • Separate the egg yolks from the whites, take only the yolks, add 50 g of water, and beat them with the whisk for 3 minutes.

  • We will not use sugar in this recipe, so as a sweet source for both pasteurization and the recipe itself, we will use only Nutella. Once the eggs are beaten, we will mix them with Nutella.

  • Mix the compound with the whisks and then take a saucepan with water, place the bowl with the mixture of egg, water, and Nutella, and at a very low temperature, continue to whisk for at least 4 minutes. Then set aside.

  • Take the whipped cream out of the fridge, and blend in the pasteurized egg mixture,
    with the whisks, but at a slow speed, until you get a smooth and homogeneous mixture.
