I usually like to point out how quick recipes take, so you are not discouraged from giving them a try. But in the case of Coffee Ice Cream, the longer it takes, the better! Mix the milk, cream, sugar, salt, and whole coffee beans in a pot, and heat in a pot until the ice cream base is warm and steamy, and the aroma permeates through the kitchen and around the house. If you love coffee, the smell of that creamy coffee mixture steeping for an hour will make you want to snuggle up on the couch with a blanket and read a good book. It might be for ice cream, but it warms the soul.
