Ingredients

1 pound unsalted butter

1 pound brown sugar

1 pound confectioners’ sugar

1 quart vanilla ice cream, softened

1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat.
  2. Blend in the brown sugar and confectioners’ sugar until smooth.
  3. Remove the pot from heat and whisk in the softened ice cream, cinnamon, and nutmeg until fully incorporated.
  4. Pour the mixture into a plastic container, cover, and store in the freezer.
  5. For one serving, combine 1 tablespoon of rum batter with 1 fluid ounce of rum in a mug.
  6. Fill the mug with boiling water, stir well, and garnish with nutmeg if desired.

Notes

Use salted caramel ice cream for a flavor twist.

Replace cinnamon and nutmeg with pumpkin spice for an autumn variation.

Batter works great in non-alcoholic drinks like warm milk, coffee, or hot apple cider.

Stores well in the freezer for up to three months.
