Homemade Chunky Ice Cream recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream (cold)
  • 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chunks or chips
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts, pecans, or almonds)
  • 1/2 cup crushed cookies (e.g., Oreos, graham crackers)
  • Optional: 1/2 cup caramel or fudge sauce (swirled in)

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream with a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract.
  3. Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture until well combined and fluffy.
  4. Stir in your mix-ins (chocolate, nuts, crushed cookies). If adding sauce, swirl it in gently with a spoon.
  5. Pour the mixture into a loaf pan or freezer-safe container. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  6. Cover tightly with plastic wrap or a lid, and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  7. Scoop and enjoy your rich, chunky homemade ice cream!
