Naughty But Darn Good

yes my treat today, waffles with pecan and maple ice cream drizzled with maple syrup.

How did it come about read on.

A while ago I mentioned I had got a cream separator, so I can get to grips with it properly I decided to buy whole milk instead of semi skimmed and run it through the seperator

 last night I run the milk through it

and got just over half a pint of thick cream, I did discover that there is a little nut you can adjust to get a thinner cream, so thats what I will do next time.

Anyhow now I had cream I needed to do something with it.

Ice cream came to mind

 chopped pecans toasted in some butter and brown sugar, then left to cool down

I popped the Ice cream bowl into the freezer over night

 then this morning made up the rest of the mix, milk, cream and maple syrup mixed in the pecans, poured it into the ice cream maker

 half an hour later pecan and maple ice cream done

 into a container and stored in the freezer.

 the other day I ordered a stove top waffle iron, today was the perfect time to try it out, really easy to use, non stick cost £15 off Amazon.

my treat this evening really yummy :-)
