This is their #1 Base and works best with the Donvier.

Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until light and
fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the sugar, a little
at at time, then continue wisking until completely
blended, about 1 minute more. Pour in the cream and
milk and whisk to blend.

Makes 1 quart

You add candies, flavorings, fruit etc. to this base.
My husband loves vanilla so I add 1 tablespoon vanilla
to above recipe.

Heath Bar Crunch

4 original Heath Bars. 1 1/8 oz each 2 large eggs 3/4
cup sugar 2 cups heavy cream 1 cup milk 2 teaspoons
vanilla extract

Cut the candy bars into 1/2 to 1 inch chunks, you
should have about 1 cup. Place the chunks in a bowl,
cover and freeze.

Mix the remaining ingredients using the directions up
above.

Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze
following the manufacturer's instructions.

After the ice cream stiffens and about 2 minutes
before it is done add the candy then continue freezing
until the ice cream is ready. Makes a generous 1
quart.
