Yield: 1/2722258935367507710000000000000000000000 tsp.

* 1/87112285931760246600000000000000000000000 egg yolk
* 3/21778071482940061700000000000000000000000 tsp. whole milk
* 3/21778071482940061700000000000000000000000 tsp. heavy cream
* 3/43556142965880123300000000000000000000000 tsp. sugar
* 9/1393796574908163950000000000000000000000000 tsp. 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.
