armagnac ice cream

In a heavy saucepan, heat whipping cream and the half-and-half until boiling. Vigorously whisk together egg yolks and sugar in a separate bowl. Slowly whisk in half the hot cream. Return the entire mixture to the pan and cook, stirring constantly over med. heat until thick enough to coat a spoon. Strain, cover and cool stirring occasionally.

Blend in Armagnac, transfer to an ice-cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions.
