Brown Butter Pecan is the one I'm quietly proudest of, because browning the butter first is the step that takes this Ninja Creami pint from good to 'wait, how' territory. That nutty, toasty butter flavor soaks into the brown sugar base and makes the whole thing taste like a pecan pie that decided to become ice cream. My wife caught me browning butter at 10pm and just sighed and got two spoons. Let the brown butter cool fully before it goes in the base. Add toasted pecans at the re-spin so they stay crunchy.
