Superb maple walnut ice cream. Compared to a commercial version, it seems more 'grown up'. Of course, it uses 3/4 cup of maple syrup in the ice cream and another 1/2 cup in the walnut mix, and I'm pretty sure that commercial ice creams couldn't afford all that expensive syrup.

Luckily we had enough in the house to indulge, and it's worth it. Do not skip on the wet walnuts, which you mix in at the end. They're simply walnuts which have been toasted and then plunged into boiling maple syrup and allowed to cool, but they elevate the recipe from a 4 star to a 5 star in my opinion.

You could also do a conventional sugared walnut, and I"m sure it wouldn't suffer.
