Bamba is actually a popular peanut snack that originated in Israel and is now enjoyed in many parts of the world. It's made from puffed corn and peanut butter and has a light, airy texture with a peanut flavor.

The reason this recipe is called "Bamba ice cream" is because it incorporates crushed Bamba peanut snacks into the ice cream base, giving it a unique and delicious flavor. The Bamba adds a slightly salty and nutty taste to the sweet cream, making it a perfect combination of flavors and textures.

So, the name "Bamba ice cream" simply refers to the fact that Bamba peanut snacks are a key ingredient in this particular ice cream recipe.

Here's a simple recipe for making Bamba ice cream:

Ingredients:

- 1 cup heavy cream

- 1 cup whole milk

- 1/2 cup granulated sugar

- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
