2 cups of goats milk

4 tsp cornstarch

1 cup heavy cream (goat if you can get it)

1/2 cup sugar

2 tbsp honey

1/4 tsp kosher salt

3 tbsp cream cheese, softened

1/2 pod of vanilla bean, cut open, seeds scrapped out

In a bowl, mix 1/4 cup of milk and cornstarch. Set aside. In large saucepan, whisk together remaining milk, cream, sugar, honey, salt, vanilla seeds (if you feel you missed some in the pod, add the pod and just remove before adding to your ice cream maker). Bring to boil over medium heat. Cook for approximately 4 minutes. Add in milk with cornstarch. Return to boil until it’s thickened, a couple of minutes. Add cream cheese to hot mixture and whisk until combined.

You can add in other flavours at this point if you’d like (pureed strawberry, chocolate chips, etc). Have fun!

Let mixture cool. Put in refrigerator until cold. Add to ice cream maker and follow manufacturer’s instructions.
