Easy Homemade Ice Cream Without a Machine (2 Ingredients!)
Learn how to make delicious homemade ice cream in the matter of minutes!
Equipment
- containers for freezing
Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream at least 35%
- ¾ cup condensed milk
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl whip your heavy whipping cream until you see soft peaks forming. Keep your whipping cream in the fridge before using to ensure best results! You want your heavy cream to have at least 35% of fat, however, this recipe is possible to do with less fat content, you might just get more whipped cream flavor in your ice cream!
- Add your condensed milk to the bowl with whipped cream. Continue beating until stiff peaks form.
- Now you can separate your mixture into a few containers and create a unique flavor for each one! I made peanut butter and chocolate ice cream, strawberry ice cream, and plain vanilla ice cream. To incorporate the add ins just fold them into the cream slightly without letting the air bubbles escape from the bowl too much.
- Cover your ice cream with parchment paper to prevent ice from forming on the top (see video instructions!). Cover with a lid and transfer to the freezer for at least 6 hours (you can also use zip lock bags for freezing). Scoop and enjoy!

Notes
- Cool your condensed milk and the heavy whipping cream in the fridge before using them to ensure the best results!
- Don’t stir your add-ins too much as it will let out the air bubbles from the whipped cream and make your homemade ice cream heavier.
- Make sure to cover your ice cream with parchment paper before freezing to prevent ice from forming on the top.
- Make homemade condensed milk to control the level of sugar and density of the product! It is really easy to make and you will only need 2 ingredients!
- Add ¼ cup of cocoa powder to make chocolate ice cream. Stir in some chocolate chips to add a crunch to the ice cream bowl!
- For a vegan ice cream recipe, you can use coconut whipped cream and plant-based condensed milk. To make coconut whipped cream you just need to let coconut fat harden in the refrigerator (the white part from high-quality coconut milk), then whip it with a hand mixer. To make plant-based condensed milk just use coconut, almond, cashew, or any other milk and follow my step-by-step condensed milk recipe.
