Coffee Ice Cream

3/4 c. sweetened condensed milk
1 1/2 Tbsp. instant coffee granules
    dissolved in 1 Tbsp. boiling water
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract or flavoring
1 1/4 c. whipping or heavy cream

Put sweetened condensed milk and dissolved coffee in a bowl over a pan of gently simmering water. Cook for 15 mins., stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla extract or flavoring and let cool before chilling in the refrigerator.

Whip cream until soft peaks form, then fold into the coffee mixture. Pour the mixture into a container. Cover and freeze until firm, beating well after 1 1/2 hours.

About 15 mins. before serving, transfer the ice cream to the refrigerator. Good served with Hot Fudge Sauce or Burnt Honey Sauce.
