Special Notes
This KitchenAid ice cream recipe creates a rich, creamy vanilla ice cream. The combination of heavy cream, whole milk, and egg yolks creates a luxurious texture. The key is not to over-cook the custard to prevent it from curdling. You can customize this recipe by adding different flavors or mix-ins. This ice cream is perfect for summer desserts and pairs well with pies, cakes, or fresh fruit.
