Trail Mix Butter Ice Cream with Honeycomb Candy & Smoked Molasses |
Ok. What is this trail mix butter you speak of? It's simply processing your favorite snack combo of nuts, dried fruits and candy coated chocolate into a spread. However, the result is far from simple. The butter is a harmonious marriage of all the ingredients that's freaking delicious. A complex flavor bomb best described as peanut butter and jelly on crack.

Now that I had the key ingredient for the ice cream, I needed some guidance. I posted Max who supplied a few killer peanut butter ice cream recipe options. I figured all I had to do was swap out PB for TMB. The resulting frozen delight was amazing. The base was infused with every single flavor component of the trail mix. The tiny bits of dried fruit, peanut and candy were wonderful flavor and texture pops. After an overnight freeze, it had a nice soft serve consistency. Thinking less sugar on the next run to harden it up a bit.

Trail Mix Butter Ice Cream
- Start with Max's Serious Eats: Better Than Snickers Ice Cream Recipe
- Just use the peanut butter base steps (no need for caramel or chocolate here)
- Replace the PB with trail mix butter
- Cut the sugar to 1/2 cup (currently a guess to get it to set up harder)
As always, stay inspired and keep the ideas bouncing.
