Cuisine North American
Keyword cookie butter, speculaas, sweetened condensed milk, whipping cream
Prep Time 20 minutes
Freezing Time 8 hours
Servings 1 quart container

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups chilled heavy whipping cream, See Notes
  • 1 300 ml can sweetened condensed milk, or 10 oz can
  • 1/2 cup cookie butter, See Notes
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cup crushed Speculaas Cookies, divided, See Notes

Instructions

  1. Have Cookie Butter made and brought to room temperature if you had it in the fridge.
  2. Prepare a freezer safe loaf pan with a layer of parchment paper that has been crushed and opened up to allow it to ease into the corners easier. Alternatively use ice cream container which has a lid.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
  4. In a separate large mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, softened cookie butter, a splash of vanilla and 3/4 cup crushed cookies. Mix until combined.
  5. Transfer 1/3 of the whipped cream to the bowl with the cookie butter base and use a silicone spatula to gently fold the two together, until thoroughly combined and no streak remain. Add the remaining whipped cream in two more batches.
  6. Spoon half of the mixture into the prepared pan. Spread evenly, top with half of the remaining crushed cookie crumbs. Use a wooden skewer to gently swirl the crumbs into the ice cream base. Repeat with the remaining ice cream and cookie crumbs.
  7. Freeze for at least 8 hours or overnight for best results.
  8. Remove the ice cream 15 prior to serving, so it can soften enough to scoop easily.

Recipe Notes

If you can only find a 14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk, increase the whipping cream to 2 cups.

Depending on which cutters you used to create the cookies, you will probably need about 12 to make up the required amount of cookie crumbs.  Or if you are purchasing ready made cookies, you will need at least 12-15. In the end, it is the 1 1/4 cups of crumbs you need.
