Making icecream - no machine

Hi
Thanks to the thread for egg yolks I have found I can make icecream with my left over yolks - wahoo! But I don't have a machine which all the recipes I have found require.
Can anyone give me some tips on how to make it without a machine!I have a hand-held beater and a triblade stick which has a whisk on it.
Thanks so much - I would like to try a chocolate and strawberry icecream if possible. (am drooling at the thought already lol!)

Here is a basic parfait ice cream that you can adapt to your chosen flavours.

Parfait Ice Cream

Serves 12

8 egg yolks
1c sugar
1/2c water
3/8c liqueur or eau de vie
600ml cream

Beat yolks until thick.
Make syrup with sugar and water and cook to 220F.Slowly pour hot syrup into yolks and beat until cold and falls in ribbons.

Whip cream and add liqueur.Fold into eggs, freeze without stirring.

Instead of syrup, use maple syrup and rum.

thanks for those. I had found a couple of others that use cream and egg yolks (which appeal as I have quite a few yolks) they refer to putting everything in the icecream machine, chill and churn. And that is where I got lost as to what to do manually.
