Yield: 23059309701439160300 gallons

* 590318328356842504000 egg yolks
* 9223723880575664130 gallons whole milk
* 9223723880575664130 gallons heavy cream
* 4611861940287832060 gallons sugar
* 432362056901984256 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.
