Ingredients

4 eggs
2 cups white sugar
2 (12-ounce) cans evaporated milk
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
Whole milk

Directions

With an electric mixer, cream eggs and sugar. Add evaporated milk, condensed milk, and vanilla. Beat well. Pour into an electric ice cream churn. Add whole milk to fill line. Insert dasher. Pack cooler 1/3 full with ice. Add a layer of rock salt. Repeat layering with ice and salt until full. Note: be careful not to overfill, spilling salt into the churn. When machine starts to labor or shut off, remove the dasher and drain water. Fill with more ice and salt. Cover with a towel and let harden.

Just Like My Dad's!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Well, this recipe for vanilla ice cream is right up there with my Dad's recipe of many, many years ago. He passed away three... years ago, and I never wrote down his recipe. I longed for a rich vanilla ice cream recipe, and now I found it in Paula Deen's. I made it in my 1 1/2 quart ice cream maker and used about half of it and finished it with the whole milk. It worked perfectly, and I still have enough to make a second batch! Thanks so much for the wonderful, creamy, rich as can be ice cream. It rivals our local favorite Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream and is so easy and quick to make. It brings back my childhood. Love it!Read more

Great Ice Cream
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is one of the best home made ice cream recipes. If you make it in the right size freezer then there is just enough... sugar. My kids and neighbors love this one.Read more

Super Sweet
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

This recipe is great only if you use 1 cup of sugar instead of 2 cups that she suggested. Otherwise, it's super sweet.

OML!! Oh My Lord!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This ice cream was the best. I used more heavy cream to make up for the 1% milk. Worked great! Also have an awesome tip for... the fall.....I added about 3/4 cup to 1 cup of pure pumpkin from the can to make pumpkin ice cream and it was to die for! I used a regular modern ice cream maker and it worked just fine. I mixed everything before hand and poured it in the maker and my kids woudn't leave it alone! This is a staple for all flavors!

Simple & Quick
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

It's a great ice cream recipe, very simple and very quick. I think it would be helpful if FN posted things such as yields and... size of vessels/machines with the recipes. Perhaps the need to cut back on the sugar comes from using a smaller ice cream maker than Paula does. I know in my Cuisinart 2-quart, I had very little room to add milk, so I split the batch and added a bit more milk to each batch. Turned out great! I will definitely use this recipe again.Read more
