You have to give this novel sweet corn ice cream a try. It’s actually made with corn, sweetly flavored by vanilla extract and maple syrup. I plan to make this surprising treat every summer.—Diana Burrink, Crete, Illinois

Ingredients

  • 2 cups 2% milk
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 4 large egg yolks, lightly beaten
  • 1 can (14-3/4 ounces) cream-style corn
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  • 1. In a large heavy saucepan, heat the milk, sugar and syrup until bubbles form around sides of pan. Whisk a small amount of hot mixture into egg yolks. Return all to the pan, whisking constantly.
  • 2. Cook and stir over low heat until mixture reaches 160°. Quickly transfer to a bowl; place in ice water and stir for 2 minutes. Stir in corn and vanilla. Press waxed paper onto surface of custard. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
