Candy Cane Gelato

Ingredients

• 2 cups milk
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 4 egg yolks
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 crushed up candy cane

Directions

1. In a medium saucepan, mix milk and cream. Warm until foam forms around the edges. Remove from heat.
2. In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks and sugar until frothy. Gradually pour the warm milk into the egg yolks, whisking constantly. Return mixture to saucepan; cook over medium heat, stirring with a wooden spoon until the mixture gels slightly and coats the back of the spoon.
3. Cover, and chill for several hours or overnight.
4. Pour the mixture and the crushed up candy cane into an ice cream maker, and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. Eat or transfer to a sealed container, and freeze until firm. If the gelato is too firm, place it in the refrigerator until it reaches the desired consistency.
