Paula: When I was a little girl every single 4th of July we would go to the park and watch fireworks where they also had an ice cream constest. My Uncle Jim won 1st Prize for his creamy vanilla ice cream four years in a row. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did. Infact, I still have my original recipe on a old yellowed piece of paper (Just can't seem to give it up). UNCLE JIM'S 1st PRIZE VANILLA ICE CREAM 1 quart of milk 1 cup of light corn syrup 5 eggs 2 cups of sugar 1 quart of whipping cream 1 Tablespoon of pure vanilla extract 1 cup of cocoa (if you want chocolate) In a 2 quart saucepan combine 2 cups of milk, the corn syrup, and the cocoa (if using). Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Cool. In a large bowl beat eggs until foamy. Gradually beat in sugar. Stir in 2 cups of milk, the whipping cream, vanilla and the corn syrup/milk mixture (with the cocoa if you added it). Chill and churn. Enjoy and remember the good old days. Debbie
