Butterfinger ice cream is a delicious dessert that combines the creamy texture of ice cream with the crunchy and chocolatey flavor of Butterfinger candy. It’s a decadent treat that is perfect for hot summer days or any time you’re craving something sweet and indulgent. Whether you’re a fan of Butterfinger candy or just love ice cream, making your own homemade Butterfinger ice cream is surprisingly easy and the results are truly scrumptious. Here’s a recipe to help you make your own decadent Butterfinger ice cream at home.

Ingredients:
– 2 cups heavy cream
– 1 cup whole milk
– 3/4 cup granulated sugar
– Pinch of salt
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 cup crushed Butterfinger candy bars (about 6 full-size bars)

Instructions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract until the sugar is completely dissolved.

2. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This usually takes about 25-30 minutes or until the ice cream has thickened and reached a soft-serve consistency.

3. Once the ice cream has reached the desired consistency, add the crushed Butterfinger candy bars and continue churning for another 3-5 minutes, or until the candy bars are evenly distributed throughout the ice cream.

4. Transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 2-4 hours, or until it has hardened to a scooping consistency.

5. Serve the Butterfinger ice cream in a bowl or cone, and top with additional crushed Butterfinger candy bars for an extra crunchy and indulgent treat.

Tips:
– For a more intense Butterfinger flavor, you can also add a teaspoon of peanut butter to the ice cream mixture before churning.
– If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can still make this recipe by pouring the mixture into a freezer-safe container and stirring it every 30 minutes until it reaches the desired consistency.
