Description

This magical three-ingredient, no-churn ice cream comes together in just minutes and freezes like a dream for a dead-on impression of rich, creamy vanilla ice cream, sans machine.


Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 114 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste

Instructions

  1. Using an electric mixer, whip heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks, careful not to overwhip.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract.
  3. Gently fold one-third of the whipped cream into the sweetened condensed milk to lighten the mixture. Then fold in the remaining whipped cream.
  4. Pour into a loaf pan or other freezable dish and cover with plastic wrap. Put in your freezer for about 4 hours or until frozen solid. Serve with your favorite ice cream toppings.

Notes

Customize by adding your favorite extracts and add-ins like peppermint and mini chocolate chips or pureed raspberries and  finely chopped white chocolate.
