Step 2
For homemade ice cream, only egg yolks are needed, so the first step is to separate them from the whites.

Next, heat the yolks with milk, sugar and a pinch of vanilla in a saucepan. Stirring constantly, bring the milky liquid to a boil and cook for several minutes over medium heat.
Step 4
Whip heavy cream with a mixer until thick, 9-13 minutes.
Step 5
Then gradually add the warm milk mixture from the saucepan into the cream. Beat until smooth for about 6 more minutes. After that, send the container with ice cream to the freezer for the night.
Step 6
Do not forget to periodically take the ice cream out of the freezer and beat it so that there are no ice crystals in the finished dessert. Ready ice cream can be decorated with chocolate, nuts or confectionery topping.
