Nice and rich. I've tried making lighter versions, but not nearly as good and doesn't freeze as well. I figure I only make (or eat) ice cream rarely, so I might as well enjoy the richness of it when I do. I make mine with local unpastuerized milk and cream that I can get from our farmer's market -- extra rich and yummy.<BR/><BR/>For 4 Quart Freezer<BR/><BR/>6 Eggs<BR/><BR/>2 ½ cups Sugar<BR/><BR/>4 cups Half & Half<BR/><BR/>1 Can Eagle Brand – regular size not the super large one or the very small one. (you can make your own condensed milk if you want)<BR/><BR/>2 Tablespoons Vanilla <BR/><BR/>½ Teaspoon Salt<BR/><BR/><BR/>Beat eggs until light – add sugar. Add all other ingredients. <BR/><BR/>Fill to freeze line with whole milk. (you can use skim or 2%, but why?)<BR/><BR/>Freeze.<BR/><BR/>You can add fruit or other ingredients before adding milk.Buckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09885809053657026847noreply@blogger.com
