How to Make Neutral A B Method Vanilla Ice Cream

  1. Whisk together egg yolks and Splenda in a medium bowl until pale and slightly thickened.
  2. In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until soft peaks form.
  3. Gently fold the whipped cream into the egg yolk mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  4. Stir in vanilla extract.
  5. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container. Cover tightly with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the ice cream to prevent ice crystals from forming.
  6. Freeze for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, until solid.
  7. Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes before scooping. Serve with fresh whipped cream and chopped walnuts for an extra touch of decadence.
  8. **Important Note:** Use pasteurized eggs to minimize the risk of salmonella.
