Rolling Desserts Basic Ice Cream Custard: Recipe Base for Flavours

Rolling Desserts Basic Ice Cream Custard Recipe: good for all rolling dessert innovations!

Owning your own ice plate means you can make delectable rolled creamy desserts with the best of ingredients. Above, only 3 raspberries were added to 1/4 of this base recipe, with the additional one on top, for garnish. The velvety vanilla cream custard is clearly homemade and the raspberries compliment the richness with a sparkle of tart irresistible early summer pleasure. Blessed bliss.

You can get 8 servings of rolled ice cream with cake as 2-3 rolls with each cake serving is ample and a lovely serving. That is, one entire batch of this Rolling Desserts Basic Ice Cream Custard Recipe will provide enough rolls for 8 slices of cake.

Rolling Desserts Basic Ice Cream Custard: Mis en Place

The mis en place, above, makes enough custard for 4 servings. The ice plate usually stays cold enough to make only 4 servings. That is, if you serve all of the roles in one batch to one person. Of course, I would. Unless I was serving it on top of a cake! Then, 2-3 rolls is enough, per serving.

Quality of ingredients is always key when making anything at home. Of course, this recipe “will work” with regular milk and heavy whipping cream. But it is divine with non-homogenized milk and 52% milk fat heavy cream from one of our small Alberta Farmers.

Rolling Desserts Basic Ice Cream Custard: Endless Flavour Additions

Popular flavours to add right into the custard base left to right above, are 1 teaspoon of excellent chocolate cocoa powder, 2 teaspoons of excellent quality cinnamon, or 1 teaspoon of green tea (matcha). There are many others you can add. Your imagination holds your prism of possibilities.

Rolling Desserts Basic Ice Cream Custard: Making the Custard in the Thermomix

You can make the custard on the stovetop, traditional style. I make it in my Thermomix. Insert the butterfly whisk, heat the ingredients according to the recipe instructions.

And, just to be sure it is ready, take the custard test, below.

Place a wooden spoon in the custard. Run your finger across the back of it, and if it stays separated, it is finished.

The recipe makes only about 1 1/3 cups of custard base which is just enough for 4 coverings on the ice plate and with 5 rolls per plate, 20 rolls.
