Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream Recipe

Earlier in the year, my husband decided he was going to make some homemade ice cream.  Yes, I am a lucky lady.  The man was on a quest.  We did try quite a few recipes though and finally came up with one that we are both very happy with.  Everyone who has tried it, loves it.  It works best if you have an ice cream maker, but if you don’t there is a way around it.. you will have to stir the ice cream with a spatula while its freezing (about every 1/2 hr.).  Ice cream makers simplify the job a lot.
