How to Make Easy Chocolate Bits Walnut Ice Cream
- Line a 9 x 5 x 3-inch loaf pan with foil, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- In a heavy saucepan, combine 1 cup packed light brown sugar and 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter.
- Bring to a boil over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, and boil for exactly 1 minute. Do not overheat.
- Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
- In a blender, combine 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Blend on medium speed for 30 seconds.
- Slowly add the cooled brown sugar mixture to the blender. Blend on high speed for 1 minute until smooth and well combined.
- Let the mixture cool completely to room temperature (about 30 minutes).
- In a large bowl, beat 2 cups heavy cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold in the cooled brown sugar mixture, 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, and 1/2 cup chopped walnuts into the whipped cream. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour the mixture into the foil-lined loaf pan.
- Cover the top tightly with foil, pressing down to eliminate air pockets.
- Freeze for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, until solid.
