At a glance
This no-churn vanilla ice cream skips the fancy machine and relies on whipped mascarpone and invert sugar to stay silky-smooth and crystal-free. The fun part is layering creamy vanilla with a glossy peanut butter swirl, then dragging a knife through for a gorgeous marbled effect—just be patient while it freezes for at least 6 hours to set properly.
1/6
Making the peanut butter swirl
In a bowl, combine the peanut butter, cream, invert sugar and salt. Gently warm the mixture in a bain-marie or microwave it for 15 seconds. Whisk until you have a smooth, glossy emulsion. Set aside and let cool completely to room temperature.

Whipping the ice cream base
In a large bowl, mix the mascarpone with the invert sugar, icing sugar and vanilla. Whisk on low speed for 30 seconds. Pour in the chilled cream and increase the speed. Whip until you get a firm, thick cream. Be careful – as soon as it thickens, stop whisking so it doesn't curdle.
