Creamiest Ice Cream Ever!

Ice Cream is the perfect dessert for not only cooling down in warm weather, but the richness and sweetness of it make it perfect for reminiscing on the nostalgia it will inevitably fill you with on a cold day. That is why I thought it would be perfect for my first food blog post. This French custard (Creme Anglaise) based ice cream is sure to hit the spot. Even though this is a vanilla based recipe, feel free to experiment with other flavors and enjoy!
