Pumpkin Gingersnap Ice Cream

1. 1

   Cook condensed milk in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, stirring every 10 to 15 minutes, until reduced by almost half, about 2 hours.

2. 2

   Remove from heat, and beat with a wooden spoon until cool. If you use an entire 14 oz can, the remainder of the milk caramel can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 2 weeks.

3. 3

   Bring milk, cream, milk caramel, and cinnamon stick to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring often. Remove from heat. Cover, and let stand 30 minutes. Return to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; discard cinnamon stick. Set aside.

4. 4

   Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Put yolks and sugar into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until pale and thick, about 4 minutes.

5. 5

   With machine running, add hot milk mixture in a slow, steady stream. Add pumpkin and vanilla, and beat until combined. Pour mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl set in the ice-water bath until cool. Freeze in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Stir in the gingersnaps, and freeze until firm.
