Preparation Steps
1
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and add the brown sugar. Stir until the sugar is melted and begins to caramelize.
2
Pour in the milk and heavy cream, then add the salt and vanilla extract. Heat gently over low heat, but do not boil.
3
Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks. While whisking constantly, slowly add a ladleful of the warm butterscotch mixture to temper the eggs.
4
Pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan, then cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the custard thickens and coats the back of a spoon. This will take about 5-7 minutes.
5
Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve, then let it cool to room temperature before refrigerating for at least 4 hours (or overnight).
6
Pour the chilled custard into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions.
7
Spoon the ice cream into the waffle cones, then place them on a tray and put them in the freezer for 30 minutes to firm up.
8
Melt the chocolate coating, then dip the top of the ice cream into the melted chocolate and immediately sprinkle with toasted almond pieces for a crunchy texture.
9
Return the cones to the freezer for another 30 minutes to allow the chocolate coating to set.
