1
can sweetened condensed milk
Ask the
hotline about
this ingredient!
Remove the label from the can (this is an important step) and place in a large stock pot/canning pot. Cover with water and allow to come to a simmer. Make sure there is plenty of water covering the can and check on it periodically, adding hot water as needed.
Ask the hotline about this step!Allow to simmer for 3 full hours. After 3 hours, cut the heat, remove the can (canning tongs are useful here, but household tongs should do the trick, otherwise just let it cool in the water) and allow to cool overnight. When you open the jar you'll find the easiest Dulce de Leche you've ever made!

Toast the pecans: in a wide skillet lay out your pecans and toast over medium heat until nuts start to let off their aroma. Stir frequently. If you start to see some blackened pecans, cut the heat, move to a heat proof bowl, and allow to cool.
Ask the hotline about this step!Brown the butter: Place the butter in a deep pan over medium heat and begin heating the butter, stirring or swirling often. The butter will start to foam and bubble but keep watching just as it starts to brown and smell nutty remove it from the heat. The process should just take a few minutes. If you 'over brown' your butter, just strain out all the brown bits. Try to avoid 'under browning'.
Ask the hotline about this step!Put your 7 yolks + 1/4 cup sugar in a blender or food processor. You will need a blender or food processor with a capacity for at least 1+ quarts of liquid.
Ask the hotline about this step!When fully combined, leave the blender or food processor running. Then, slowly pour the (strained) hot brown butter into the yolk/sugar mixture and keep blending until fully combined.
Ask the hotline about this step!Rinse out the pan you used for your brown butter and place the rest of the sugar, salt, and milk (but NOT the cream) in the pan over medium heat. Allow the mixture to get to a simmer and then cut the heat.
Ask the hotline about this step!Again, with the machine running, add the sugar/milk mixture into the egg/brown butter mixture.
Ask the hotline about this step!When all the yolks have been fully incorporated, poor off the liquid into a large bowl. Add the pumpkin and heavy cream and mix to combine.
Ask the hotline about this step!Allow to chill in freezer overnight.
Ask the hotline about this step!Freeze as per manufacturers recommendations on your ice cream maker.
Ask the hotline about this step!In the last few minutes of churning (or afterwords if your ice cream maker doesn't set your ice cream too stiffly) add in the chopped pecans.
Ask the hotline about this step!In a wide container, place a layer of the pecan/pumpkin ice cream. Then, spread a few 1-2 tsp size blobs of dulce de leche on top of the layer. Next, spread another layer of the ice cream and add more blobs of dulce de leche, repeat until you run out of ice cream (or space in your container!).
Ask the hotline about this step!Allow to set in a freezer overnight before consumption.
