Now for the homemade ice cream that we made last week for our Superbowl Party...and when I say party, I mean just our family upstairs watching the game on TV :)

I don't know what makes this 'Texas-style', but that is what the recipe is called.  If anyone knows, please comment.  I got this recipe from my Mom's White Mountain Ice Cream Maker recipe book.

Texas-style Vanilla Ice Cream

Ingredients:

2 eggs, separated

1 cup milk

1/ cup sugar

2 tsp. vanilla

1/4 cup white corn syrup

Directions:  Scald milk.  Mix the egg yolks with the sugar and add to scalded milk.  Add the corn syrup and cook until the mixture coats the spoon, remove from heat.  When cool, add the egg whites beaten stiff, the vanilla and the whipping cream.  Freeze according your ice cream freezer directions.  Makes ~2 quarts.
