    Grandma Hausfeld’s Homemade Ice Cream


    Source of Recipe


    Grandma Hausfeld via Nancy Larson

    Recipe Introduction


    *This is an OLD recipe. From long before we worried about egg safety. Be sure to cook your eggs well.
    *It’s NOT low-calorie!
    *The original recipe we received was for a 5-gallon freezer. Some of the measurements are odd because of this. If you don’t have 55 grandchildren and over a dozen uncles to help crank, I suggest you use a smaller freezer. Electric ones work fine.
    *While delicious, this recipe can be a bit thin or runny. I suggest using whole milk. Allowing it to harden for a couple hours after it is done cranking will also help. Just remove the paddle, cover the top of the freezer can, (mine has a cork to close the top) and put lots of ice and salt in the freezer. Allow it to set until you are ready to eat.
    *This recipe if for basic vanilla ice cream. You can add fruit, chocolate chips, M&M’s, etc as your family desires.
