Recipe for homemade vanilla parfait

Delicious and light ice cream that doesn’t require an ice cream machine.

You can consider this recipe as a base ice cream. You can add flavors in many different ways. 

You can use the following powders to whisk into the egg mixture: cocoa, licorice powder, cinnamon, ginger, etc. 

You can also fold various syrups into the mixture before pouring it into the mold. For example, it could be licorice syrup, maple, apple, caramel, coffee, mango, etc. 

If you use berries, you can either use fresh berries or you can make a coulis from 150 g berries, 50 g sugar, and 25 g water, which you cook for 5 minutes and blend, strain, and cool before folding into the ice cream mixture. It can be raspberries, blackcurrants, blueberries, blackberries, forest berries, cherries, etc.
