Ingredients
 
 

Vanilla Ice Cream

  • cup heavy cream
  • cup milk any
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 150 g granulated sugar
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 2 tsp. vanilla extract or paste, high quality

Toppings (No rules!)

  • crushed oreos
  • mini chocolate chips
  • rainbow sprinkles
  • chocolate sprinkles
  • chocolate fudge syrup
  • strawberry syrup
  • caramel sauce
  • mini marshmallows

Instructions
 

  • Mix together the egg yolk, sugar and cornstarch.
  •  Heat the heavy cream to hot, but not boiling.  Slowly whisk the hot heavy cream into the egg yolk mixture.
  • Add salt.  After mixed in, heat the entire mixture again for a short while to ensure the sugar dissolved and yolks are cooked. Once mixture looks to start boiling, remove from heat.
  • Remove from heat. Sift mixture into clean bowl. Add the vanilla.
  • The mixture will be hot, so set aside at room temperature, occasionally stirring the mixture.
  • Once cooled, cover and place in refrigerator for at least 4 hours. Mixture needs to be very chilled before churned.
  • After fully chilled, prepare your ice cream maker. Pour chilled mixture into ice cream maker for about 20 minutes, or until done. Eat immediately, or chill in a freezer-proof container.
  • Now... TOPPINGS!!!!!

Notes

A standard ice cream machine works great with this recipe!
Before the ice cream is finished churning (about 5 minutes before) in the ice cream maker, add your favorite additions (i.e. chocolate chip, sprinkles, nuts, cookies, etc.) to the ice cream.
