This vintage frozen custard gets its divine richness from evaporated milk and sweetened condensed milk. Both were once popular in the South because they required no refrigeration. Egg safety issues arose in the 80s (after this recipe was originally published) and prompted us to use only cooked custards as an ice-cream base. Today, pasteurized eggs are widely available and eliminate concern.

I made this for our community picnic on Fourth of July weekend, doubled the recipe in hopes of having leftovers to freeze. The gang ate it all and raved about the taste! It’s my first time doing custard style, loved it and this weekend I’m trying a strawberry version. Delicious!!

It looks like the custard curdled when I added the peaches. Before that it smelled great and I was really looking forward to it. If someone knows where I went wrong, pls let me know

So creamy and delicious. My only suggestion would be to add more peaches, maybe leave them chunkier, so the flavor comes through more.
