Yummy~licious + Baby~licious: Ice-Cream

Sangkaya Coconut Ice Cream @ SS15 Subang Jaya

Last two weekends ago saw my family and my friends making rounds around SS15, Subang. It was the craziest night. In just one night, we visited a cafe, two ice-cream shops and a bubble tea shop.

We started off by having dinner at Flingstones Cafe to celebrate my good friend's (aka bro-in-law 'K') belated birthday. Then we went for ice-cream and waffle dessert at Fatbaby. Still not enough, we walked down the street for more ice-cream at Sangkaya. Lastly, we settled down at Gong Cha for a quiet chit-chat. Crazy but it was a great catch-up with my friends, as well as a good opportunity to try out the new stuffs in town!

Sangkaya is an ice-cream parlour offering anything coconuty, from ice-cream to drinks. According to their website, there is also a Thai Milk Tea ice-cream but I don't think I have seen it on that night. Maybe I was too engrossed with their Signature ice-cream. The hefty price tag doesn't seems to bother too. I don't mind paying a little extra for beautifully presented goodness (but only once or twice, or maybe thrice on the same item).

Signature Ice-Cream @ RM10.50
Rating: 3.5/5
This is their top recommendation - 4 scoops of premium coconut ice-cream with 3 toppings of your choice, served on fresh coconut husk, with coconut flesh strips.
(If I remember correctly), there were around 5 toppings - toasted peanuts, toasted desiccated coconut, corns, chocolate syrup and cornflakes. The ice-cream were indeed premuim - rich in flavor and has a very nice creamy texture. But unfortunately, the toasted peanuts (on that day) were not fresh. It has a "Yik" smell, like expired peanuts.

You may choose to sit outside at the alfresco area or inside Jibril Lounge, which is just behind this 'brick wall'. The door seems to be hidden, it is actually on the left hand side of this 'brick wall'. Just push yourself in to enjoy a totally different environment.

Lemon Ice Cream Bars

This recipe is very similar to my "Smooch Me Bar Ice Cream". In that recipe, I've used chocolate ganache with toasted peanuts and a layer of crushed oreo biscuits in between the vanilla ice cream. It was sinfully yummylicious! I wished I could show you the picture but I am still having problem with my old blog, hence I can't link to that recipe. Perhaps I will make again very soon and post the recipe [again] here, in Yummy~licious.

Today, I've make Lemon Ice Cream Bars in conjunction with Bake Along theme "Lemon Bars". It is a very citrusy and refreshing dessert, most suitable for our hot weather now. Hope you all will enjoy this!

200g cream crackers (crushed)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1500ml vanilla ice cream, slightly softened
Some icing sugar, for dusting

You will need a 9" square pan/baking dish, Lined with foil, leaving overhang on 2 sides.

1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine egg yolks, sugar and lemon juice. Cook until mixture has thicken about 8 mins, whisking frequently.

2. With a wooden spoon, stir in the butter, one piece at a time, and cook until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of the spoon, about another 7 mins.

3. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer, using rubber spatula to press down the curd into a medium bowl. Stir in the lemon zest and salt.

6. Spread vanilla ice cream onto the crumbs layer. (Try to work fast on this, as weather is very hot these days, the ice-cream tends to melt very fast). Let chill in freezer for another 10-15 mins until the ice cream set again.

8. Lift out of the pan using the overhanging foil. Cut into desired sizes and dust with icing sugar.
