Cherry Chip Ice Cream part 1

Cherry chip ice cream is a two parter. Today I made the "custard". beat egg yolks and sugar together. Heat milk, cream and sugar. Slowly add milk mixture to the egg mixture while whisking. Return it all back to the pan and cook for about 8 minutes. Meanwhile I had defrosted some frozen cherries, drained them, reserving the liquid. At this point I should add the reserved liquid after the custard comes off the heat. But not thinking I added it while heating the milk mixture for the first time. But to be honest I am not real sure what difference it makes. Once the custard is at the right temperature you place in a bowl that is sitting in an ice bath. While it was cooling I chopped up the cherries in small pieces (see mango ice cream mistakes). Once I did this I realized there was more liquid comeing from the cherries. I placed the cherry pieces in my salad spinner and got the rest of the liquid out. THIS liquid I added to the custard while it was cooling. Once the custard had cooled I covered it and put it in the refrigerator. Tomorrow morning I will get up and finish the ice cream adding the cherry pieces and chocolate chips.
