    ...as another poster noted. Mine scrambled too, and that has never happened to me. (And I make custard constantly - it's my favorite dessert. Follow that poster's good advice! Also: don't use your food processor as suggested! Use you rKitchenAid, as it's much more likely to have enough capacity. I have an average-size processor and this overflowed everywhere. Finally: add vanilla! They seem to have left that essential ingredient out. I won't try this again, as I'm already out 6 eggs, 2 cups of organic milk, and 1 carton of organic cream. :(

    This ice cream tastes almost like frozen eggnog, without the nutmeg. It's delicious, rich, and creamy, and the flavor is amazing! I had to try a different method of tempering the eggs than suggested however, as I kept scrambling them when I put the mixture back in the hot pan. I just put a little bit of milk in with the eggs and then transferred the eggs into the milk rather than the other way around and it worked much better!
