Thanks for pointing that out. One of the reasons we switched to mls is that there are two cup measures - UK and US. A US cup is 8 oz, and a UK cup is 10 oz. Because of this, there was always confusion. I suppose I should update all the old recipes to metric! Using the cookies recipe should work just fine (naturally without the cookies) As for whipping the cream, I like this vanilla ice cream dense, but if you want a lighter version, whip the cream by all means! Thanks again for your comment. Hi there, Mary!

I'm comfortable with either US or EU measurements, but I notice this one is still US and your more recent recipes are in ml/g. 1 cup of sugar seemed to me a bit more than say your cookie ice-cream which seems to be a vanilla base. I also notice that you don't advocate whipping the cream like you do in more recent recipes. So I guess I'm wondering if this recipe has been fine tuned or if you still use this version.

Do not try this at home as you'll ruin your batch! Made vanilla ice cream today with Splenda with hopes of lowering the calorie content and it turned out bitter and the ice cream crystalised.

I tried this recipe and I found out its better to use good quality vanilla beans. I came across with myvanillashop (click my name for link) which offers premium vanilla beans straight from Madagascar at a bargain value. My children just love my vanilla ice cream, its smell good and they love it too. I love vanilla ice cream, it’s my childhood favorite flavor.

I like this one dense, but you're welcome to whip the cream! Whipping the cream will make the ice cream lighter and more fluffy. I like this one dense, but you’re welcome to whip the cream!
