Ingredients
3 cup whole milk
2 cup candy corn (use your leftover candy corn)
12 ounce evaporated milk
Directions
Pour 2 cups of milk and 2 cup of candy corn into a sauce pan on the stove top. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly to avoid burning or clumping. Continue to stir and heat until all the candy corn is completely melted. Remove it from the heat and set it aside in a large bowl for 10 minutes to cool at room temperature. Then place it in the refrigerator for around one hour. After the mixture is cooled, add the avaporated milk and the last cup of milk, stirring thoroughly using a hand mixer to form stiff peaks.
Ice Cream Maker Churn: At this point, you can pour the mixture into an ice cream maker or ice cream churner and churn candy corn ice cream for 25–30 minutes. Transfer into a freezer-safe container and freeze for 2 hours. Overnight is best.
Ice Cream Freezer Method:
Pour mixture into an 8-10 inch square baking dish or loaf pan and place in the freezer for 90 minutes. Remove it from the freezer and whisk the mixture, scraping the sides of the pan and breaking up any frozen chunks. Put it back into the freezer for 45 minutes. Remove from the freezer and repeat, whisking the mixture again, scraping the sides of the pan well. Return to the freezer for 30 minutes, then repeat three times more. At this point, the consistency should be soft serve ice cream ready. Transfer to a freezer-safe airtight container and freeze for 2 hours. Overnight is best.
This treat may be seen on select nights at the Not So-Scary Halloween Party at Magic Kingdom. Can be used for candy corn ice cream float, or candy corn milkshakes. Some people choose to use vanilla ice cream with orange coloring, orange sherbet, yellow ice cream, orange ice cream, and another ice cream base; however, the flavor of the candy corn will not be pronounced in this recipe using those flavors.
**Other varitions of the recipe candy corn is used using heavy cream (heavy whipping cream) and condensed milk ( sweetened condensed milk). The cups heavy cream may vary, so use cup heavy cream sparingly.
