I use the coffee can method to make all my ice cream.

Ben & Jerry's Butter Pecan
(Makes 1 qt.)

1/2 cup butter
1 cup pecan halves
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup 2% milk
2 teaspoon vanilla

Melt butter over low heat in a small skillet. Add pecans and salt and saute until browned. Strain pecans, reserving butter.
Whisk eggs in a mixing bow, 1-2 min., until light and fluffy. Slowly whisk in sugar over 1 min. Pour in cream, milk, reserved butter, and vanilla; whisk to blend. Transfer to the ice cream maker and freeze according to directions. Add pecans about 2 minutes before ice cream is ready (while it's still spoonable)
