How To Make Chick-O-Stick Ice Cream
The sweet and nutty taste of Chick-o-Stick confectionery is perfectly complemented by the rich and creamy texture of ice cream, which I’ve recently discovered in the form of Chick-o-Stick ice cream.
In this post, I’ll show you how to make Chick-o-Stick ice cream in your own kitchen and give you some pointers to make sure it comes out perfectly every time.
Chick-O-Stick Ice Cream Ingredients
The first step in making Chick-o-Stick ice cream is to gather all the necessary ingredients. For this recipe, you will need:
- 2 cups of heavy cream
- 1 cup of whole milk
- ¾ cup of granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- ¾ cup of Chick-o-Stick candy, crushed into small pieces
You can find Chick-o-Stick candy at most grocery stores or online. If you’re unable to find Chick-o-Stick candy, you can substitute it with a combination of peanut butter and toasted coconut flakes.
Instructions To Make Chick-O-Stick Ice Cream
Heat the Cream and Milk
In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream and whole milk over medium heat. Stir the mixture continuously until it starts to steam, but do not let it boil. Once it starts to steam, remove the pan from the heat.
Add Sugar and Vanilla Extract
Add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract to the cream mixture and stir until the sugar has dissolved completely.
Chill the Mixture
Once the cream mixture has cooled down, transfer it to a bowl and cover it with plastic wrap. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least two hours or overnight.
Churn the Ice Cream
Once the cream mixture is chilled, it’s time to churn the ice cream. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn it according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This should take around 20-30 minutes, depending on your machine.
Add the Chick-o-Stick Candy
During the last few minutes of churning, add the crushed Chick-o-Stick candy to the ice cream maker. Let the machine continue churning until the candy is evenly distributed throughout the ice cream.
Freeze the Ice Cream
Transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze it for at least four hours or overnight. This will give the ice cream a chance to harden and for the flavors to meld together.
Can I use a different type of candy instead of Chick-o-Stick candy?
While Chick-o-Stick candy is the traditional candy used in this recipe, you can certainly use a different type of candy if you prefer. Some other options might include peanut butter cups or even chopped-up Snickers bars.
Can I make Chick-o-Stick ice cream without an ice cream maker?
Chick-o-Stick can be made without an ice cream maker. Simply freeze the cream mixture for an hour in a freezer-safe jar. Remove the ice cream from the fridge and beat it with a hand mixer until smooth. Repeat until the ice cream is solid.
