  • Return mixture to same saucepan; cook over medium heat until small bubbles form around edge, stirring constantly. Do not boil.

  • In a bowl, add the whipping cream. Strain the egg yolk mixture in.

  • Cover and refrigerate 4 hours or until cold.

  • Combine all the cherry compote ingredients in a saucepan over low heat until the cherries are soft. Using a blender blend the mixture until smooth. Set aside.

  • Turn the ice cream, mixing on low speed; pour the cold mixture into bowl with mixer running. Continue to mix for 20 - 30 minutes.

  • Fold in the cherry compote and digestives.
