  4. Transfer to an electric ice cream maker and process according to the manufacturers instructions.
  5. Pour into a freezer safe container and freeze until set.

Cook's Notes

Yield
Makes about 5 1/2 cups
Advance Prep
Be sure to start this several hours ahead to allow time for freezing.
Special Equipment
An electric ice cream maker is helpful but you can make the ice cream without it. Pour the mixture into a freezer-proof bowl and place in the freezer to set, about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from the freezer and whip well. Return the mixture to the freezer and allow to freeze through, about 2 hours.
