Once the ice cream is churned to a soft-serve consistency, gently fold in the cooled butter pecan mixture. If your ice cream maker allows, you can add the pecans during the last few minutes of churning.
Alternatively, you can transfer the churned ice cream to a freezer-safe container and swirl in the pecans by hand.
Freeze:
Transfer the ice cream to a lidded container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
Serve:
Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping to make it easier to serve.
Enjoy
