By Mark Errington
Ingredients
1 cup of sugar
1 Tbsp of Vanilla Extract
3 quarts of Half & Half
1 package of JELL-O Vanilla Cook & Serve Pudding Mix (4.6 oz Box)
4 eggs
Rock Salt (optional)
3 bags or more of fine crashed ice (optional)
==============
Directions
==============
- Add eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract in a large bowl and mix them all together and set a side
- Make the pudding mix (mix 4.6 oz or 130 grans of pudding mix with 3 cups of half & half into a medium/large saucepan over median heat). Using a large wooden spoon, mix the pudding slowly until it gets thick.
- Do not over cook or under cook the pudding! The pudding will become a little thick when its done.
- When the pudding is done; remove the saucepan from the burner.
- Add the eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract mix above to the pudding mix and stir for about three minutes or so.
- Pour all of this into the ice cream container or a one gallon plastic jug.
- Add the rest of the half and half to the mix or up to the fill line of the ice cream container using a spoon to mix. If using a plastic jug, you may need a funnel. Put the lid on the plastic jug and shake it many times to mix everything together).
- Now get a strainer and pour the mix thru it. You may need another one gallon plastic jug and a funnel.
- You can start turning it now or put the ice cream container in the refrigerator for at lease 3 hours or over night.
- You are now ready to turn your ice cream.
- If you put your ice cream in a plastic jug like I do. You will need about 15 - 8oz glass jars with lids.
- I fill each jar and put them in the refrigerator where I keep my frozen foods, ice.
- Each day I take one jar out and set it a side where I am eating my food. Mean while, the ice cream is slowly melting. In about an hour it is ready to eat. The temperature in my room is about 70 to 73 degrees Fahrenheit.
Enjoy!
Best Ice Cream in the World!

This recipe has been in our family for over 100 years. My grandma made this ice cream way before I was born. I was born in 1958. When I was a teenager, I watched my grandma make this ice cream. I'm the only family member still making this very ice cream today.
