Then dip the saucepan into cold water and cool the mixture. *Note: I recommend to cool completely in the fridge..
- Note: Alternatively you can cook custard directly over a low heat, but you should use warmed Milk to shorten the cooking time..
- In a bowl, beat Cream and Caster Sugar until soft peaks form. Add the cooled (OR chilled) custard and Vanilla Extract and gently combine..
- Pour the mixture into a container and place in the freezer for 2-3 hours or until ready..
- *Note: The real ice cream becomes hard when completely frozen. To soften it, transfer the ice cream from the freezer to the fridge 20-30 minutes before serving. Or let it stand at room temperature for 10-15 minutes..
