To make butterscotch ice cream recipe, combine milk, condensed milk, powdered sugar, milk powder in a deep bowl and whisk well till no lumps remain. Transfer the milk mixture into a deep pan and bring to a boil, while stirring once or twice in between. Cook on a slow flame for 7 minutes, while stirring continuously and scraping the sides of the pan with a flat spoon. Transfer the mixture in to a bowl and keep aside to cool completely. After cooling, add the butterscotch essence, mix well using a spoon or a whisk.
Next to make Indian butterscotch ice cream with whipped cream, pour the milk mixture into a loaf tin or an aluminium container. We have used a container which is 8" x 3" and has a height of 2". Cover the tin with an aluminium foil and freeze for 6 hours or till semi-set. Remove the semi-set ice-cream from the freezer, transfer it in a mixer and blend till smooth. Transfer it back into a deep bowl, add the whipped cream, prepared praline and yellow gel food colour and mix well. Transfer the mixture back into the same loaf tin or aluminium container. Cover it with an aluminium foil and freeze for approx. 10 hours or till set. Scoop and serve butterscotch ice cream.
Yes, here were tell you how to make the ever-popular homemade butterscotch ice cream! Loved by kids and adults alike, this rich Indian butterscotch ice cream has a mellow flavour balanced wonderfully by the sweet crunch of the crushed praline.
The praline, made with cashews and sugar, gives a delectable texture and rich flavour to the ice-cream. Relish this treat slow and steady, hunting out the praline chunks in each mouthful and biting into them slowly to let their flavour swirl into the rest of the butterscotch ice cream creating magic on your palate.
The secret of this luscious Indian butterscotch ice cream with whipped cream is the use of both condensed milk and milk powder along with whipped cream. These add the perfect thickness, body and creaminess to the ice cream.
Tips to make butterscotch ice cream. 1. Make sure you use full fat milk / buffalo's milk for this recipe to get the perfect texture. 2. To make praline, instead of a flat steel plate you can use also butter paper. 3. If you do not have powdered sugar, you can blend the table sugar in a mixer and use it. 4. The yellow gel food colour is added to get an attractive colour like the butterscotch ice cream available in the market. If you wish, you can avoid it. This will not affect the flavour of the ice cream. 5. The butterscotch ice cream without whipped cream starts melting instantly, so remember to serve it immediately after scooping. 6. Ensure that the freezer is not too cluttered, else the ice cream might not set well.

To make homemade beaten whipped cream recipe | how to make whipped cream for cake | perfect Indian whipped cream | whipped cream frosting, take 1 1/4 cups unbeaten whipped cream in a deep bowl. This is also called as heavy cream. Remember the heavier the cream, the faster it will whip.
-
We need an electric beater for this recipe. It is a hand mixer which is operated using electricity. Basically it is a food mixer powered by electricity. An electric beater is a kitchen utensil which uses a gear-driven mechanism to rotate a set of beaters in a bowl containing the food to be prepared. It automates the repetitive tasks of stirring, whisking or beating.
-
Start beating with an electric beater.
-
After 2 to 3 minutes, you will realise that the cream has thickened slightly and the volume also increased.
-
After 8 to 10 minutes beaten whipped cream is thick and ready. If it forms soft peaks, it is ready. You will see that the beater holds the cream very well. Another way to check if it is ready is to spoon a little cream and try turning the spoon upside down. If the cream doesn’t fall easily, it is beaten well. Whipping till perfect is very important as over whipping will ruin the dessert while less of beating will make it difficult to set. Note that this recipe makes 2 cups of beaten whipped cream and we need only 1 cup to make butterscotch ice cream. So you can beat only half the unbeaten cream or store the remaining 1 cup of beaten whipped cream in the freezer. It stays fresh for upto 15 days and can be used to make other desserts.
