Heat over medium until just steaming. In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks with sugar until thick and pale. Slowly whisk the warm cream mixture into the egg mixture to temper. Return everything to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the custard thickens slightly (170–175°F or 77–80°C). Remove from heat. Stir in cream cheese, guava paste, and vanilla extract until smooth. Blend with an immersion blender or standard blender until fully combined and silky. Strain the mixture if needed, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight. Churn in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer’s instructions. For added texture, swirl in softened guava paste just before transferring to a container. Freeze for at least 4 hours until set.
