Great ingredients list, but speaking from personal experience, I have not applied heat to eggs in an ice cream recipe for decades now. They cook far too easily, and too often end up in the waste bin. Aside from which, it is totally unnecessary these days. Commercially available products such as evaporated milk, condensed milk, caramel, and even instant custard all render 'cooking' eggs in milk totally unnecessary, and indeed save a lot of time to boot. When I add eggs to my ice cream recipes, I do so 'cold'. It works just as well, and there's no risk of trashing the mixture by over-cooking it. I also use the whole egg, which I separate. The yolks go directly in the mixture, and the whites are beaten until stiff. Then fold into the custard/cream mixture. Makes for a lighter, smoother, fluffier texture that is easier to scoop almost straight out of the freezer.
