Coffee ice cream

Directions

1. Combine eggs, yolks and sugar in a bowl and blend thoroughly with a whisk or electric beater for about 5 minutes.

2. Heat milk and cream in a medium saucepan until it is near-boiling hot. Turn off heat.

3. Slowly pour in 1 cup of the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture, beating rapidly with a whisk.

4. Once it is all beaten in, pour the egg mixture into the saucepan with the milk mixture while beating.

5. Heat mixture under medium low, stirring constantly, for a few more minutes or until the consistency is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon when dipped in. Turn off heat.

6. Pour mixture into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap placed snuggly, touching the mixture so a skin does not form.

7. Chill overnight or until completely cool.

8. Pour mixture into ice cream maker and following manufacturer’s directions.

9. Freeze for at least 2 hours after ice cream is done churning.
