Ingredients

6 Large Egg Yolks
2/3 cups Sugar

1.5 tsp. Vanilla Paste

Directions

  • Remove from heat.
  • Add the vanilla extract and paste.
  • Mix well.
  • Strain the mixture through a fine sieve to remove any bits of clumped egg.
  • Cool mixture in ice water bath, making sure not to get any water in the custard.
  • Process according to your ice cream maker/machine directions.
