Vanilla Bean Ice Cream

Vanilla Bean Ice Cream is a classic dessert that is loved by everyone. This creamy and delicious treat is perfect for any occasion and is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth. To make this delectable dessert, you will need the following ingredients:

- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 vanilla bean, split and scraped
- 6 egg yolks

To start, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, and vanilla bean in a medium saucepan. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it comes to a simmer.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks until they are pale and frothy. Slowly pour the hot cream mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly, until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Remove the mixture from the heat and strain it through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
Once the mixture is chilled, pour it into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
The Vanilla Bean Ice Cream is a creamy and smooth dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It has a rich vanilla flavor that is enhanced by the use of a real vanilla bean. The texture is velvety and luxurious, making it a true indulgence.
