I LOVE ice cream! Especially as the weather is warming up, it’s a nice cold treat to cool down with.
Ice cream seems intimidating to make, especially the ones with eggs in it. However, I have found an easy 2 ingredient ice cream based that you can add flavors and mix-ins to and create any ice cream concoction you wish! I may have as much fun with creating new ice cream combinations this summer as I do with my challahs!
What you will need:
Ice cream base
2 cups heavy whipping cream, chilled
1 14oz can sweetened condensed milk
Optional: 1 tbsp vanilla bean paste
Chocolate S’mores Ice cream
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
Pinch of salt
¼ cup caramel or chocolate chips
½ cup mini marshmallows
Lime Ice Cream with Mixed Berry Swirl
Zest and juice from 1 lime
½ cup homemade {or store bought} mixed berry preserves
Directions:
Whip the cream {and vanilla bean paste} with a mixer on medium-high speed until firm peaks form, about 2 minutes.
Fold about 1 cup of the whipped cream into the sweetened condensed milk with a rubber spatula until combined, then fold the lightened mixture into the whipped cream until well blended.
For chocolate ice cream- Whisk together the condensed milk, cocoa powder, and salt in a large bowl. The mixture will become very thick. Then fold in the whipped cream mixture.
For lime ice cream- whisk together the condensed milk, lime zest, and juice. Then fold in the whipped cream mixture.
For add ins-
Chocolate s’mores- pour half of the ice cream mixture into your container, and sprinkle with about half of the mix-ins on top and swirl with a knife. Repeat with the remaining half of the ice cream and mix-ins.
Mixed berry swirl- pour half of the ice cream mixture into your container, dollop about half of the preserves on top and swirl with a knife. Repeat with the remaining half of the ice cream and mix-ins.
Pour into a container, or a 9x5x3 loaf pan and freeze until set, about 4-5 hours.
Enjoy!
