How to Make Homemade No-Churn Ice Cream
Making easy no-churn homemade ice cream is a simple process that requires just a few ingredients. You can make just about any flavor you can think of with this simple homemade ice cream base. You don’t need an expensive special kitchen appliance either! Just a hand mixer and a chilled bowl.
One of the great advantages of no-churn homemade ice cream is its simplicity and versatility. You can easily customize the flavors to suit your preferences and experiment with various add-ins. For example, to create chocolate ice cream, add cocoa powder to the cream and condensed milk mixture. For fruity variations, blend your favorite fruits and swirl the puree into the ice cream base. You can also add crushed cookies, chopped nuts, or chocolate chips for added texture and flavor.
To begin, gather your ingredients: 2 cups of heavy cream, 1 can (14 ounces) of sweetened condensed milk, and your choice of flavorings. See the no-churn ice cream recipes below to get inspired!
In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. This can be done with an electric mixer or by hand with a whisk. Next, gently fold in the sweetened condensed milk, ensuring the mixture is well combined but still light and airy.
At this stage, you can add your desired flavorings and mix them in thoroughly. Pour the mixture into a lidded container, cover it tightly, and place it in the freezer for at least 6 hours or overnight until it is firm. Once fully frozen, your easy no-churn homemade ice cream is ready to be enjoyed!
