Yield: 92237238805756641300 gallons

* 2361273313427370020000 egg yolks
* 36894895522302656500 gallons whole milk
* 36894895522302656500 gallons heavy cream
* 18447447761151328300 gallons sugar
* 1729448227607937020 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.
