​Pumpkin Spice Ice Cream

Ingredients

• 2/3 C 100% Pumpkin Puree (not pumpkin pie filling)

• ¾-1 t Ground Cinnamon

• ½ t Ground Ginger

• ¼ t freshly grated Nutmeg

• 1/8 t ground Allspice

• 1 14-oz. can Sweetened Condensed Milk

• 1 t Vanilla Extract

• 2 C Heavy Cream

Instructions

1. In large mixing bowl, mix Pumpkin Puree with the Cinnamon, Ginger, Nutmeg, Cloves and Allspice - this helps prevent spices from clumping together.

2. Add Sweetened Condensed Milk and Vanilla. Beat using an electric mixer until mixture is smooth, about one minute. A few small lumps are ok.

3. In second large mixing bowl or stand mixer bowl, beat Heavy Cream on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.

4. Gently fold Whipped Cream into Pumpkin mixture until the mixture looks smooth with no streaks of whipped cream and is light orange in color. Be careful not to over-mix!

5. Pour the mixture into a loaf pan or any freezer-safe container. Place a sheet of wax paper on top of the mixture and smooth it out to prevent ice crystals from forming.

6. Transfer to freezer and allow to freeze for at least 6 hours.

7. Ice cream is best served within 1 to 2 weeks for ideal texture.

8. Enjoy!
