5 eggs yolk

4 1/2 cups whipped cream
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 cup blueberries fresh
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon water

In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, bring 2 cups of the cream to just under boiling. Gradually stir one-third of the hot cream into the yolk mixture until smooth, then stir back into hot cream in saucepan. Stirring over low heat, cook until mixture coats a metal spoon and is slightly thickened.

Place saucepan in a bowl which contains cold water and ice. Stir cream mixture to cool quickly and stop the cooking remove from ice water. Stir in remaining cream and vanilla. Pour into a 2-quart ice cream freezer container cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour.

Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium heat, bring blueberries, 1/3 cup sugar and water to a boil. Cook and stir for 5 minutes or until blueberries are tender and broken up. Transfer to a small bowl cover and refrigerate at least 45 minutes.

Wipe salt and ice off container lid, remove dasher. With a long handled spoon or spatula, stir in blueberry sauce to swirl.
