★Instructions
- Prepare the Ice Cream Base:
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, heavy cream, and milk until the sugar is dissolved.
- Add the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, then whisk until well combined.
- Chill the Mixture:
- Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight. This ensures that the base is thoroughly chilled, which helps with the freezing process.
- Churn the Ice Cream:
- Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes, but times may vary.
- Freeze Until Firm:
- Once the ice cream has reached a soft-serve consistency, transfer it to an airtight container.
- Freeze for at least 2-4 hours, or until it reaches your desired firmness.
- Serve:
- Scoop the ice cream into bowls or cones and enjoy!
Tips:
- For an extra creamy texture, you can add an additional egg yolk to the base mixture.
- If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can pour the mixture into a shallow dish, freeze it, and stir every 30 minutes until it reaches the desired consistency. This method will take longer and may result in a slightly different texture.
Enjoy!
