on Jun 30, 2013, Updated Sep 24, 2021 31 Comments My butter pecan ice cream recipe is so simple to make and even more delicious to eat! It is the perfect ice cream recipe if you are concerned about using eggs in your ice cream and it doesn’t require you to heat the ingredients and cool prior to freezing.In my book, that makes it about as perfect of an ice cream recipe as you can get! Butter pecan ice cream is a favorite for so many people, including my husband, that I knew it had to be one of the first homemade ice cream recipes that I shared for the summer. So easy to make, I simply toast my pecans with a bit of butter in a skillet over medium-low heat. Then, I allow them to cool while I’m combining the rest of my ice cream ingredients. To combine the other ingredients, I cream together the heavy cream, milk, and softened cream cheese until smooth. Then, I mix in all of the other ingredients, finally stirring in the buttered pecan mixture. Finally, I let my ice cream maker do its thing and in just a bit I have over the top, delicious homemade butter pecan ice cream. It’s all kinds of fabulous! Here’s my homemade Butter Pecan Ice Cream Recipe. I think you’ll love it. Enjoy!Robyn xo
