This simple recipe requires no ice cream maker and yields delicious, creamy ice cream in just a few easy steps.
Ingredients:
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, chilled
- 2 cups heavy cream, chilled
Instructions:
- Whip the cream: In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the heavy cream on high speed until stiff peaks form.
- Combine: Gradually add the chilled sweetened condensed milk to the whipped cream, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Flavor (optional): Stir in your favorite mix-ins, such as:
- Chocolate: 1/2 cup cocoa powder, 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
- Cookies & Cream: 1/2 cup crushed Oreos
- Mint Chip: 1 teaspoon peppermint extract, green food coloring, Andes mints
- Fruit: 1 cup chopped fresh berries
- Freeze: Pour the ice cream mixture into an airtight container. Cover the surface with plastic wrap to prevent ice crystals from forming. Freeze for at least 6 hours, or until firm.
Tips:
- For best results, chill all your ingredients, including the bowls and beaters, before you begin.
- To make scooping easier, let the ice cream soften slightly at room temperature for a few minutes before serving.
- Get creative with your flavor combinations! Try adding nuts, candies, or even a splash of your favorite liqueur.
Enjoy your homemade ice cream!
