Introduction

you can use all heavy cream (4 C) and then your choice of 2C of milk and also 4 whole eggs rather than the egg whites, as well as 1 1/2 C of real sugar. In my recipe, I have substituted some lower fat/lower cal. ingredients and still had a good quality end result. you can use all heavy cream (4 C) and then your choice of 2C of milk and also 4 whole eggs rather than the egg whites, as well as 1 1/2 C of real sugar.

Ingredients

    6 large Eggs, 2 whole, 4 whites only
    3/4 C Granulated Sugar
    3/4 C Splenda
    1 C Heavy Whipping Cream
    1 C Light Cream
    2 C Half and Half
    2 C Skim Milk
    4 tsp Vanilla Extract
    (optional Vanilla Bean seeds)
    Approx 1 C. chilled Hershey Kisses or Mini Hershey Kisses; chopped w/ food processor, or blender

Directions

Makes approx. 8 "husband" size servings;) Sorry I can't be more specific, it never lasts more than a couple of days (if that) in our home and the serving sizes are not equal if you know where I'm coming from:)

1) First, beat the eggs until light and fluffy. If you have an electric hand mixer, or even better, a KitchenAid stand mixer, this will be a much easier process on your wrist/arms. If you are using an electric mixer this will only take a minute or two, if by hand it takes considerably longer/ more effort (believe me, I did it that way on my first attempt)

2) Gradually add the sugar/splenda to your eggs while continuously stirring the mixture.

3) Finally, add the creams, milk, and vanilla to the egg mixture, and blend.

4) Chill in the refrigerator, covered, preferrably in a steel bowl (it gets cold quicker) for at least 15-20 minutes. During this time also chill your Hershey's kisses if desireable (they are by no means necessary to make this treat tasty, it is great just as vanilla).

5) Pour the egg/cream mixture into your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. I have a KitchenAid. It requires the bowl to be frozen for 15 hours prior to making the ice cream. Therefore it remains at all times in my freezer, otherwise there's no ice cream on a whim, and this recipe is so SIMPLE that you'll want to be able to whip it out in a snap!

6) While the ice cream is mixing, chop your Hershey's kisses in a food processor or pulse chop them in a blender and return to the refrigerator. You can place them into the ice cream mixture during the last several minutes of the mixing process, or according to your manufacturer's instructions.

7)Enjoy!
