Butterbeer

Elijah has been reading Harry Potter recently. I've been toying around with a Harry Potter party. I came across a recipe for Butterbeer. It sounds good, just VERY sweet. I'm very curious how it tastes.

Ingredients

1

pint real vanilla ice cream

¼

cup real butter , at room temperature

½

teaspoon butterscotch extract

¼

cup brown sugar

1

teaspoon ground cinnamon

½

teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

1

quart apple cider


Apple slices for garnish, optional

Preparation

Step 1

Using a mixer on medium speed, beat together the ice cream, butter, butterscotch extract, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well-combined. Pour into a container and freeze.

Step 2

When ice cream mixture has re-frozen, heat apple cider in a saucepan until steaming hot.

Step 3

Put one scoop of ice cream into a soda glass, or large mug, and top with warm apple cider.

Step 4

Garnish with apple slices, if desired.
