Equipment

  • 1 ice cream machine

Ingredients
  

  • 4 packs nutty buddy bars or 8 individual bars
  • 1 cup milk whole is best, but 1 or 2% also works well.
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 1 pint heavy whipping cream equals 2 cups
  • 3 tablespoon vanilla extract can do a bit more or less to taste

Instructions
 

  • Combine your milk and sugar into a bowl and mix together until sugar is dissolved.
  • Add your heavy whipping cream and vanilla.
  • Chop up your nutty buddy bars and begin to add to your mixture. I recommend using a food processor, blender or finely chopping with a knife, leaving a few bigger chunks out that will be larger pieces in the ice cream.
  • Add nutty buddy bars to your bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, it's best to chill overnight.
  • Turn on ice cream machine (pulling freezer container from the freezer where it's been chilling for at least 12 hours) and add ice cream base to the machine. Allow to churn for 30 minutes.
  • Store in an airtight container in the freezer for 2 weeks. Enjoy!
  • Top with crushed peanuts if desired. Serve in a waffle cone, sugar cone or in a bowl.
