Ingredients

  • 3 large egg yolks, slightly beaten

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups whipping (heavy) cream
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla

    In 2-quart saucepan, stir egg yolks, sugar, milk and salt until well mixed. Cook just to boiling over medium heat, stirring constantly (do not boil).
  • 2
    Pour milk mixture into chilled bowl. Refrigerate uncovered 2 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally, until room temperature. At this point, mixture can be refrigerated up to 24 hours before completing recipe if desired.
  • 3
    Stir whipping cream and vanilla into milk mixture. Pour into 1-quart ice-cream freezer and freeze according to manufacturer's directions.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Increase sugar to 1 cup. Beat 2 oz unsweetened baking chocolate, melted and cooled, into milk mixture before cooking. Decrease vanilla to 1 teaspoon.
  • tip 2
    Decrease vanilla to 1 teaspoon. Mash 4 or 5 peaches with potato masher or in food processor until slightly chunky (not pureed) to make 2 cups; stir into milk mixture after adding vanilla.
  • tip 3
    Decrease vanilla to 1 teaspoon. Mash 1 pint (2 cups) strawberries and an additional 1/2 cup sugar with potato masher or in food processor until slightly chunky (not pureed); stir into milk mixture after adding vanilla. Stir in a few drops of red food color if desired.
