Ted Lasso Biscuit Ice Cream

Inspired by the show, Ted Lasso, I created a tea and biscuit ice cream flavor, which I like to call “Biscuits with the Rooiboss”. Both the rooibos tea ice cream base and the biscuits are equally delicious. If it was a competition, you might say it’s a…tie ⚽️👀(biscuit recipe thanks to Milk Bar, ice cream recipe thanks to Food52). See more of my ice cream creations on TikTok @crawbuckcreamery

Step 1

Heat the oven to 315F and prepare an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix the butter and sugars vigorously until smooth.

Step 3

Stir in the egg yolks

Step 4

Add the flour and salt, mix just until the dough comes together. (“The less you mix the dough, the more positive vibes your biscuits will have,” according to Tosi.)

Step 5

Using damp hands, press the dough in an even layer in the pan and bake for 40 to 45 minutes until a thin, golden brown layer forms on top.

Step 6

Let cool completely before cutting into rectangles.

Step 7

Heat whole milk on low heat and add Rooibos tea. Let steep for 20 minutes.

Step 8

In a pot over low heat, stir together milk, cream, sugar, and salt until the sugar dissolves for about five minutes.

Step 9

In a separate bowl, whisk the yolks. Add a ladle of the warm milk mixture into the yolks, stirring vigorously with a whisk to temper your eggs. Pour the tempered yolks back into the pot with the milk, and put the whole thing over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, for about five minutes, or until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.

Step 10

Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve.

Step 11

Pour the mixture into a container and chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours, or overnight.

Step 12

Churn your ice cream according to the manufacturer's instructions.
