The warm hint of cinnamon swirled in {brown sugar} French vanilla ice cream makes...snickerdoodle ice cream.

Ingredients

3 eggs
2 cups milk (or half and half)
1 cup brown sugar
2 cups heavy cream
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp+ cinnamon

Instructions

In a large saucepan, beat the eggs, milk and sugar until well blended.
Cook the egg mixture over low heat for roughly 10 minutes, stirring constantly, until thickened. It should smoothly coat the back of a wooden spoon.
Let the mixture cool.
Add the heavy cream and the vanilla.
Stir until blended and refrigerate the mixture until it is completely chilled, for several hours or up to overnight.
Following the instructions of your ice cream maker, pour the chilled mixture into your machine and stir it until the ice cream forms. It will typically be more like soft-serve when you first make it. If you want firmer ice cream, transfer it to a sealed container once it reaches the soft-serve consistency and let it freeze for several hours until it hardens.
Recipe makes 1 quart of ice cream.
