Ingredients
10-11 fun size Butterfinger candy bars, chopped
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
4 large eggs, beaten
2 cups heavy whipping cream
½ gallon whole milk
1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
Ice for ice cream maker
Rock salt for ice cream maker
Directions
In a large bowl, combine the beaten eggs, sweetened condensed milk, heavy cream, and vanilla extract. Whisk vigorously until all ingredients are completely blended and smooth, ensuring no streaks remain.
Pour the egg mixture into your ice cream maker. Add the whole milk slowly while stirring, filling the maker to the fill line indicated on the container. Whisk again thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed and fully incorporated.
Prepare your ice cream maker by layering ice and rock salt. Create a 2-inch layer of ice, then sprinkle approximately ¼ cup of rock salt over it. Repeat this layering process until the ice level reaches the top of the ice cream maker container.
Insert the prepared mixture into the ice cream maker and start the churning process. Follow your machine's specific instructions and allow it to churn until it reaches soft-serve consistency, typically 45–55 minutes depending on your machine.
Once the ice cream maker stops and the ice cream has thickened, immediately transfer it to a large bowl. Fold in the chopped Butterfinger pieces, distributing them evenly throughout the ice cream.
Transfer the ice cream to your desired storage container and place it in the freezer immediately to set completely, approximately 4 hours or until firm.
