- Split the vanilla pod and scrape out all the seeds with a small paring knife. Mix the seeds with 1 tablespoon of your sugar on a chopping board or plate. Whisk all the egg yolks, vanilla seeds, and the rest of your sugar until thick and airy. Whip cream until a delicious foam and fold it into the egg mixture. Then add Cocio a little at a time and fold again until you have a smooth mixture. Pour the ice cream mixture into a mold and freeze for 7–8 hours. Remove the ice cream cake 5–10 minutes before serving and decorate with your favorite toppings. Bon appétit.
