    Whisky and honey ice cream

    
    2 tbsp malt whisky
    2 tbsp runny honey
    510ml milk
    284ml carton double cream
    4 large egg yolks
    95g golden caster sugar
    
    

    To make the ice cream, place the milk, cream and honey in a heavy-based saucepan and bring slowly to the boil, Beat the egg yolks and sugar together until smooth, then stir a little of the milk mixture into the egg yolks, Pour the eggs into the milk and, stirring constantly, cook over a low heat until thickened slightly(about 10 mins). Don't let it boil or the mixture will curdle, Tip the mixture into a jug and leave to cool, covering the surface with clingfilm.

    Once coid, stir in the whisky, then pour into an ice-cream machine and follow the manufacturer's instructions. Alternatively, pour into a large, shallow freezer container and freeze for 6 hours, removing every 2 hours to whisk the mixture to prevent ice crystals from forming.
