How to Make Whiskey Cream Liqueur Ice Cream

  1. In a small, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine 1/2 cup (120ml) water and 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves completely.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 (8 ounce) package of mascarpone cheese and 1/2 cup (120ml) of your favorite whiskey cream liqueur (e.g., Heather Cream, Baileys) until completely smooth and creamy.
  4. Gradually whisk in the cooled sugar syrup and 1 cup (240ml) heavy cream until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
  5. If using an ice cream maker, churn the mixture according to the manufacturer's instructions. If you don't have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container, cover, and freeze for 1 hour. Remove, break up the ice crystals with a fork until the mixture is mousse-like, and freeze for another hour. Repeat this process once more, then freeze until solid (approximately 4-6 hours).
  6. Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping and serving.
