Yield: 47225826556517598400000 gallons

* 1208981159846850300000000 egg yolks
* 18890330622607036000000 gallons whole milk
* 18890330622607036000000 gallons heavy cream
* 9445165311303518000000 gallons sugar
* 885484247934704943000 gallons vanilla

Whip the egg yolks while adding the sugar slowly. Continue whipping until it's 
smooth. Add the milk and mix thoroughly.

Cook the custard over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, 
until it is thick enough to coat the back of the spoon. This should happen at 
about 165 degrees F - 170 degrees F. If the custard starts to fill with lots of
tiny flecks, you've cooked it too far - stop! Remove the custard from the heat
and cool to refrigerator temperature. Add the cream and vanilla. Mix well.

Freeze using your method of choice.
