Alright, let’s talk about this quick easy ice cream recipe. Ain’t nothin’ better on a hot day than a big ol’ bowl of cold, sweet ice cream. And this here recipe, it’s so simple, even a mule could do it, near ’bout. Don’t need no fancy machine, just stuff you probably got layin’ around the house.
Now, first thing you gotta do is get yourself some of that sweetened condensed milk. That thick, gooey stuff in a can. That’s the secret, see? It’s already sweet, so you ain’t gotta mess with a bunch of sugar. And it makes the ice cream real creamy-like. And you need some heavy cream, the kind you whip up for pies and such. That’s what makes it fluffy.
Then you gotta think about what flavor you want. Me, I like plain ol’ vanilla. Just a splash of that vanilla extract, the real stuff, not that fake water. But you can put in whatever you like. Chocolate, strawberries, peaches when they’re in season. Just chop ’em up real fine.
- Get that condensed milk.
- Get some heavy cream.
- Pick your flavor – vanilla, chocolate, fruit, whatever you got.
- Got a big bowl? Good.
Now, get yourself a big bowl. Dump in that condensed milk. Then, pour in your heavy cream. If you’re using vanilla, put that in now too. If you are using fruit you need to puree them first, make them into a jam-like form. Then put that fruit jam into the bowl. Now comes the fun part. You gotta mix it, and mix it good. I use a big ol’ spoon, but you can use one of them electric mixer things if you got one. Just make sure it’s all mixed up real good, no lumps.
Some folks like to use a blender for this part. You can dump it all in your blender and give it a good whirl. Just don’t overdo it, or you’ll end up with butter! We want ice cream, not butter, right? And if you don’t have a blender, no problem. You can use a food processor. Or just use your arm and stir that thing like you’re churnin’ butter the old-fashioned way! Just make sure the cream, condensed milk and the flavor is all mixed up.
- Mix it all up in the bowl.
- Use a spoon, or a mixer, or a blender.
- Don’t overmix it, or you’ll get butter.
Once it’s all mixed up, you need somethin’ to freeze it in. I use an old bread pan. Just pour that creamy goodness right in there. Cover it up with some plastic wrap, make sure it’s good and tight so no ice gets in there. Then, stick it in the freezer. You can use anything that is freezer safe. A plastic container will also work. Just remember to cover it.
Now comes the hard part… waiting! It takes a few hours for it to freeze up good. I usually leave it overnight, just to be sure. It is very hard to wait! But it’s worth it, I tell ya.
When it’s finally frozen, get yourself a big spoon, or an ice cream scoop if you’re fancy. Scoop out a big ol’ heap and put it in a bowl. Or a cone, if you got ’em. And there you have it! Quick easy ice cream, made right in your own kitchen.
- Pour it in a pan or something you can freeze.
- Cover it up good with plastic wrap.
- Stick it in the freezer for a few hours, or overnight.
- Then eat it all up!
