Oreo Ice Cream
Berkeley's favorite flavor of ice cream is Oreo. He specifically requested it for his birthday party tomorrow. None of my ice cream recipe books have a "Cookies and Cream" or "Oreo" ice cream recipe, so I made it up. This recipe is based on the "Vanilla Ice Cream #1" recipe found in The Ultimate Ice Cream Book (found on page 129). It turned out great... probably the best batch of ice cream I have ever made.

2/3 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 tbs flour
¼ tsp salt
1-2/3 cups milk
1 cup cream
2 tsp vanilla extract
10 oreos

Beat sugar into eggs until thickened, add flour and salt and set aside. Simmer milk in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Slowly beat hot milk into the egg mixture and then transfer back to pan over low heat. Stir constantly until slightly thickened (be careful to not heat too quickly or the eggs will scramble). Remove from heat and pour hot custard through a stainer into a large bowl. Allow to cool slightly, then stir in cream and vanilla. Refrigerate until cold.

Add 5 crumbled oreo cookies to ice cream mixture and then immediately transfer to ice cream maker. The White Mountain ice cream maker we own will freeze the ice cream in about 25 minutes (ymmv). Remove frozen ice cream from ice cream maker, add remaining 5 Oreos (crumbled) and mix to combine by hand. Serve immediately or transfer to freezer to harden completely.
