Remove from heat; cover and let stand for 10 minutes.In bowl, whisk egg yolks with sugar; slowly whisk in cream mixture. Return to pan and cook over medium-low heat, stirring, until thick enough to coat back of spoon, about 8 minutes.
Strain into 9-inch (2.5 L) square metal cake pan; stir in bourbon. Place plastic wrap directly on surface. Refrigerate until cold, about 1 1/2 hours.
Freeze until solid, 8 to 12 hours. Break up and purée in food processor until smooth. Scrape into airtight container; freeze until firm, about 4 hours. Or freeze in ice-cream machine according to manufacturer's instructions.
