How to Make Espresso Rum And Walnut Ice Cream

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of water, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and 1/4 cup of espresso powder.
  2. Stir over low heat, continuously, until the sugar and espresso powder are completely dissolved. Do not boil.
  3. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool completely to room temperature.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together the cooled espresso mixture, 2 cups of heavy cream, 1 cup of whole milk, 1/4 cup of dark rum, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  5. Stir until thoroughly combined.
  6. Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  7. When the ice cream begins to thicken (about halfway through the churning process), gently fold in 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts.
  8. Continue churning until the ice cream is thick and frozen.
  9. Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2-3 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the ice cream to firm up before serving.
