Bev's Classic French Vanilla Ice Cream

After doing a thorough seach, I decided to come up with my own recipe for vanilla ice cream. After all, ice cream is an important base for serving my mom's chocolate sauce My results turned out an ice cream that is not only rich in flavor, but creamy and smooth. If you are a fan of rich, creamy and smooth - you are going to like this — especially when paired with Lee Lee's Famous Chocolate Sauce for Ice Cream (Lee Lee's Famous Chocolate Sauce for Ice Cream) I hope you enjoy this!

This recipe came out way too "eggy" for me. The texture was great, though. I think next time around I'd omit some of the yolks.

    I bought an ice cream maker two summers ago. I must confess the I had never used it, until I came across your simple, delicious and easy to make recipe. My sons ate the whole lot in one sitting and wanted some more,lol. Next time I will add some fresh fruits or nuts. Thanks!!

    This is heavenly! I mixed the ingredeints in the morning, refrigerated for several hours and then made the ice cream mid-afternoon. Placed it in an air tight freezer container and allowed it to age in the freezer for about 4 hours before serving. It is creamy and delicious. Used the ice cream to make Grilled Banana Splits Grilled Banana Splits by Sharon123.
