  3. Place the remaining prunes and the Armagnac in a food process or blender and process to a corse puree and set aside.
  4. In a saucepan, combine milk and 2/3 of the sugar, bring just to the boil over medium heat, and remove from heat.

  6. Slowly temper the yolk mixture with the milk/sugar mixture until combined in the saucepan.

  10. Follow machine directions.
