Candied Bacon Ice Cream!

Print Pin Save

Ingredients
 

For the candied bacon

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 lb bacon cooked and roughly crumbled
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon light brown sugar

For the ice cream

  • 1 quart of ice cream. We used caramel swirl.

Instructions

Candied bacon

  • Melt butter in medium saute pan, over medium heat.
  • Add the crumbled bacon and stir.
  • Sprinkle both sugars over bacon and stir continuously until the sugar melts (about 5 to 7 minutes).
  • Pour the bacon in a single layer onto parchment paper and set aside to cool completely.

Ice cream

  • While waiting for the bacon to cool, empty out the quart of ice cream into a big mixing bowl to soften. Do not melt the ice cream and don't throw out your ice cream container! (We helped speed up the process by mashing the ice cream with a mixing spoon)
  • Once the bacon is cooled, add bacon to the ice cream and mix well so the bacon bits are evenly distributed.
  • Return the bacon ice cream into its original container and freeze until firm (about an hour).
  • Enjoy!
