Ready Time

2 hrs 30 mins

Yields

10 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 1/2 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup corn syrup
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Instructions

Combine the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, corn syrup, and kosher salt in a medium saucepan.

Whisk the mixture over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is hot but not boiling.

Remove from heat and stir in the pure vanilla extract.

Let it cool to room temperature.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Once the ice cream is nearly fully churned, transfer it to an airtight container and cover with plastic wrap or aluminum foil.

Place it in the freezer to harden for at least 2 hours before serving.

Scoop and serve.

Notes

For the best flavor, use high-quality vanilla extract, as it will really shine in this recipe. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can also place the chilled mixture in a 9×13 inch baking dish and freeze for about 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes until the desired consistency is reached.

Keep in mind that the ice cream will be slightly chunkier this way.

For a creamier texture, make sure to age the mixture in the fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight, as this will allow the flavors to meld together beautifully. If you’re planning to serve this at a dinner party, consider scooping the ice cream into cones or bowls ahead of time and storing them in the freezer until it’s time to serve.

This will make things much easier and less chaotic.
