How To Make donna's creole cream cheese ice cream

  • Step 1
    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together sugar and eggs until fluffy and pale yellow.
  • Step 2
    In a saucepot, combine half-and-half and cream. Bring to a simmer, but do not boil. Remove from heat. Stirring constantly, slowly blend cream mixture, 1 ladle at a time, into the egg mixture. Stirring will ensure that the eggs will not scramble. Add vanilla, and optional cinnamon and nutmeg.
  • Step 3
    Strain through a fine sieve and chill overnight, or for a minimum of 4 hours.
  • Step 4
    When ready to use, whisk Creole cream cheese into the custard mixture until all lumps are removed. Pour into a home-style ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's directions.
  • Step 5
    Place ice cream in the freezer for 2 hours prior to serving.
