Recipe - Mirjs Simple But Excruciatingly Delicious Ice Cream

1 cup Whipping cream
Three fourths cup Sugar; (this is a personal
decision of sweetness) (up
to 1)
4 Eggs; separated
Flavoring

Whip the cream until stiff. Add the sugar and continue whipping. Add the 4
egg yolks, one at a time. Then add in your flavoring (more about that in a
minute).

Whip the 4 egg whites until stiff. Slowly fold the whites into the
cream/yolk mixture until completely blended. Turn into your favorite
freezerware and freeze for several hours.

Flavorings can be pureed fruit, melted chocolate, liquors (a hit with
adults, but just keep in mind that the more alchohol you put in the stuff
the softer it will freeze.

Some of our favorite flavorings are:

Pureed strawberries Vanilla instant pudding (this makes a gelatolike ice
cream) Cointreau and chocolate shavings Chocolate chips and almond slivers
Lots and lots of melted chocolate

See, I told you this was a simple recipe, and you don't even need to buy an
expensive ice cream maker.

One additional note I usually use 1 cup of nondairy whipping cream,
usually Rich Whip. You can't taste the difference and for those who don't
eat dairy it's a great boon.
