4-Ingredient Creamy Ice Cream Recipe
✅ Ingredients:
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream (cold)
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt (enhances flavor, optional but recommended)
🥣 Instructions:
- Whip the Cream
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to whip the heavy cream on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. This takes about 3–5 minutes. - Mix Condensed Milk, Vanilla & Salt
In a separate bowl, stir together the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and salt until fully combined. - Fold Gently
Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture using a spatula. Do this slowly to keep the air in the whipped cream — this is what makes it creamy and light. - Freeze
Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container (like a loaf pan). Cover tightly with plastic wrap or a lid and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.
🍨 Optional Add-ins (before freezing):
- Chocolate chips
- Cookie crumbs
- Fruit swirls
- Crushed candy
- Peanut butter or Nutella ribbons
✅ Tips:
- Use cold cream straight from the fridge for best whipping results.
- Want a chocolate version? Add 1/2 cup cocoa powder to the condensed milk before mixing with the cream.
