Old-Fashioned Frozen Vanilla Custard

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. + freezing YIELD: 1 quart.
Not too long ago, I found this recipe for a frozen treat we used to eat when we went to Grandma's house. Now, whenever I make it, it reminds me of her. She loved to bake, and so do I.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup half-and-half cream
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 3 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

  • 1. In a heavy saucepan, combine first three ingredients. Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Cool. Pour into chilled ice cube trays without dividers or a shallow pan. Freeze to a mush (do not freeze hard). Whip cream; add vanilla and salt. Fold into partially frozen mixture. Return to trays or pan and freeze.
