Preparation:
Heat granulated sugar and 1/4 C (60 ml) of the water in a large skillet on medium high heat until the sugar melts and boils, stirring occasionally. Boil until mixture is a dark brown; remove from heat. Gradually stir in remaining 3/4 C (180 ml) water. (I love this part, cause the syrup boils up when the hot water is added) Cool to room temperature and set aside. Beat eggs in a medium bowl until thick and lemon colored; gradually beat in powdered sugar. Stir in cream and vanilla; stir in the caramel mixture. Chill. Freeze in an ice cream machine according to manufacturers directions. |
