I wanted something quick and easy. It is very creamy for sure, but it could definitely use more vanilla flavour to it. Like others I found this tasted a lot like sweetened cream. I am happy I only made half the recipe and will probably use it in milkshakes instead of just eating it as I originally intended.

Extremely quick, simple and tasty. Makes a great base, with the occasional modification, for other flavors.

This is delicious and really easy. No cooking. I mix up Eagle Brand and part of the milk in my blender before pouring into freezer. A wonderful recipe.

This was my 1st time making this,i never made hm. made ice cream b-4,my mother allways made it, but i watched, and i was really suprised to how it came out. I made the recipe to T, someone commented that it was too eggy and had some egg reminints in the mixture, i knoticed that if your mixing it at the last, and find some egg yolk reminints, i find you can use a wisk beater, and stir real good, and it will began to be smooth, and yes if you cook it over med. heat and watch it, not to over boil, but just to the point of ready to boil, then it shouldnt get any crystals in it. After adding everything back into the pan while it was still hot, (while on the stove), i got a huge mixing bowl and poured the custard mix in it, then got a metal wisk blender and mixed it well, put that into the machines container, and set that container in the freezer for just a jiffy, i had to be somewhere fast, so i didnt have time for it to cool dwn, so by the time i got to where i was going, pluged it in, and in about an hr. it was done, YUMMY! I was really proud of myself, and really out did my self this time, i was amazed and excited about my 1st time makeing it, that i told some others about it, my husband tried mine for the 1st time , and he thought it was really terrific!!! It came out creamy, and firm, and when it was ready some, i added black berries to it, and it was a hit! I racked my mind on the Internet trying to find a basic recipe, and so glad i found you guys, i think ill just keep

We love this ice cream!!! The only change I made was to add about 1/2 cup of sugar to sweeten it a little more!!! This is so easy and just as good as the ice cream that you have to mix stovetop! We have made this several time and will make it many more times!!!

I grew up going to the county fair every summer. The big draw at the fair was the FFA's homemade ice cream. This is identical!!! It is so good, I cant believe how simple it is. You must try it, just as it is!

This recipe is awesome, I used it because it had the option to not use an ice cream maker. The only thing I changed was use a little less vanilla and also 2 cups of half and half not heavy cream. Its not icy at all its nice and creamy with a great flavor.

OK, I did what lots of us do...I changed things a bit. I used 2 C. half & half and 2 C. heavy cream and 1 tsp. vanilla and 1 tsp. vanilla paste and of course the Eagle Brand. I froze it in my Cuisinart ice-cream maker (the 2 qt. model) and it came out VERY good! No after taste and it froze beautifully. Was the vanilla flavor strong? I don't think so. IMHO if you are going to go to all the trouble of making something from scratch then don't skimp...I used really good vanilla and cream so maybe that's what this recipe is missing? Anyway, bottom line? I had really good results with this simple recipe and will add it to my forever cookbook.

After trying this recipe, I would have to advise users to scale down the vanilla extract portion. 2 tblspns creates a stronger than desired vanilla taste. Extract flavors in ice cream are bold and should be used with care. I would use 1 to 1 1/4 tablspns for a lighter vanilla presence.

While very good, this does not freeze up quickly and will need to finish off in the freezer with stirring every 30 minutes or so to keep it from settling and getting rock hard. For that reason I rate it 4 stars.

This was pretty good. A little on the sweet side. I still think I prefer the Five Minute Ice Cream better. This one is a little like a Wendy's Frosty. I'm planning on using this to make cookie sandwiches with leftover Whole Jar of Peanut Butter Cookies.

this is a wonderful recipe. I was looking for an easy ice cream recipe to make for a church function and gave this one a try. Everyone loved it, including me. I've already had people asking me to make it again.

AWESOME recipe! My husband kept fussing at me saying that I couldn't have gotten the recipe right and I had to be missing stuff. When it came out looking like dough, he fussed more saying I didn't get the recipe right. When he took a bite of it, he greatly apologized and said how awesome it was. It was just too easy. That's the only recipe we use anymore, and it really does make enough for 12! We had another container of it going at the same time thinking that it wouldn't be enough for our party of 14, but it made just enough, and we never touched the other container of it during the party and just froze it. ***The BEST thing, is that it does NOT melt quickly! Most recipes melt the instant it leaves the container, but I was able to eat ALL of my ice cream outside on a fairly warm night, and it didn't on me! We're going to take our manual maker on our camping trip this weekend and see how it holds up to 85 degree weather. ;)

This was all right for a quick dessert, but not nearly as good as other (traditional) ice cream recipes I've tried. There was definitely an odd aftertaste to it and the consistency was more like frozen yogurt than ice cream, so I don't think I'd serve this to company. I might try it again in the future with other flavorings added like pureed fruit or instant coffee, but I wouldn't make it again according to the original recipe.

I think this recipe is super-easy to prepare and the tastiest too! It has the perfect amount of sweetness, I'd compare it to the Breyer's vanilla - it's great on its own or will be a perfect vanilla base for creating your own rocky road mix. I wouldn't change a thing and rated this 5 stars.
