Ice cream loaf is your new favorite kitchen sink frozen treat
SalonFor a brief period in my childhood, my family and I lived in a small town outside of Boston. You can thank Steve Herrell and his original Somerville shop for helping popularize the ice cream parlor theatrical flourish known as the "smoosh-in." The concept translated successfully into other mix-in ice cream chains, as well as the kitchen sink confections currently lining our grocery freezer sections. It was a photograph of her Salty Coffee & Peanut Slice Cream, a dish in which "sweet coffee ice cream gets swirled with salted cream and strewn with roasted peanuts," and which comes together in minutes. *** Recipe: Salty Coffee Ice Cream Loaf Inspired by Molly Baz and BBC Good Food Makes 8 generous servings Ingredients: 3 pints of coffee ice cream 1 cup of salted peanuts, lightly crushed 1 cup of creamy peanut butter, if you are so inclined Directions: Soften the ice cream for about 20 - 30 minutes on the countertop, or 15 to 30 seconds in the microwave.
