Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream
- 14 oz (395 g) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Optional mix-ins: chocolate chips, crushed cookies, fresh berries, chopped nuts
Instructions
- Chill the heavy cream in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
- Pour the chilled heavy cream into a blender jug. Add a pinch of salt. Pulse on medium-high speed for 2-3 minutes until soft peaks form.
- Add the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract to the blender. Pulse for 30 seconds to combine, scraping down the sides if needed. Avoid overblending.
- Pour the blended base into a mixing bowl. Gently fold in any optional mix-ins using a spatula.
- Transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container. Smooth the top, cover tightly, and freeze for at least 4-6 hours or overnight until firm.
- Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly.
Notes
Chill the blender jar and blade before whipping cream for better results. Avoid over-blending to prevent butter formation. Let ice cream soften before scooping for easier serving. Store leftovers in an airtight container with parchment paper on top to prevent ice crystals.
