Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Grape nut cereal (more for garnish)
  • 2 cups Heavy cream (warmed)

  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
 

  • Take the egg yolks in a medium bowl and sugar until the mixture is pale yellow in color.

  • Add the remaining 1/4 cup of grape nuts to the frozen mixture and mix it well. Add the mixture to an airtight bowl and freeze in the refrigerator for at least 1.5 hours before serving.
  • Garnish with some additional cereals, if desired.
