Whip Up Happiness: 5-Minute Ice Cream Recipe

Indulge in a creamy, homemade ice cream treat in just five minutes! This no-churn recipe requires only a few simple ingredients and minimal effort, making it perfect for spontaneous dessert cravings. Customize it with your favorite mix-ins or flavors for a delightful twist!

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or flavor of your choice)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional mix-ins: chocolate chips, crushed cookies, fruit pieces, nuts, or any favorite toppings

Instructions:

  1. Whip the Cream:
    • In a large mixing bowl, pour in the heavy whipping cream. Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer, whip the cream on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Combine Ingredients:
    • In a separate bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix until well combined.
  3. Fold in the Cream:
    • Gently fold one-third of the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture to lighten it. Then, gradually fold in the remaining whipped cream until fully incorporated. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
  4. Add Mix-ins:
    • If you’re using any mix-ins, gently fold them into the ice cream mixture now. Get creative with flavors and textures!
  5. Freeze:
    • Pour the mixture into an airtight container. Smooth the top with a spatula and cover it with a lid or plastic wrap. Freeze for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
  6. Serve:
    • Once frozen, scoop your delicious 5-minute ice cream into bowls or cones, and enjoy! Add extra toppings if desired.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, try adding cocoa powder for chocolate ice cream or fruit purees for fruity variations.
  • Store any leftovers in the freezer for up to a week, but it’s best enjoyed fresh!
