Fat Man's Ice Cream

Joel hasn't made homemade ice cream for quite a few years, but we decided it would be great to make some for a picnic we're attending later this afternoon.  We pulled out our family's favorite recipe. . .they don't call it Fat Man's for nuttin'.   

1 lb. Milky Way candy bars, cut up
2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup chocolate syrup
1 quart whipping cream
1 quart half & half


In a 4 quart Dutch oven, cook candy bars, sweetened condensed milk, and chocolate syrup over low heart, stirring frequently, until the mixture is smooth.  Remove from heat.  Stir in creams.  Poor into storage container, cover, and chill completely.  Pour into a 4 or 5 quart ice cream freezer can and freeze.  Ripen about four hours, repacking ice once or twice. Makes 12 cups ice cream. . .you don't even want to know the nutritional content.  Just enjoy!!
