Make Brown Butter Ice Cream
In a saucepan, melt 1 cup of butter over medium heat. Continue cooking until the butter turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma. Let it cool slightly, then mix with 2 cups of heavy cream, 1 cup of whole milk, 3/4 cup of brown sugar, and a pinch of salt. Chill the mixture, then churn in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
