How to Make Cinnamon Ice Cream Diet Version For Electric Ice

  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt.
  2. Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth.
  3. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a simmer.
  4. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in the cinnamon and vanilla extract.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks slightly.
  7. Temper the egg yolks by slowly whisking in about 1/2 cup of the hot milk mixture. This prevents the eggs from scrambling.
  8. Pour the tempered egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining milk mixture.
  9. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the custard is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Do not boil.
  10. Remove from heat and stir in the heavy cream.
  11. Pour the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl. This removes any lumps.
  12. Press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming.
  13. Refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours, or until completely chilled.
  14. Churn the chilled custard in your electric ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. This usually takes about 30 minutes.
  15. Once churned, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to allow it to harden further.
