Easy Ice Cream Recipe: 4 Ingredients and Very Creamy, High Yield

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream (cold)
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2–3 tbsp powdered milk (optional, for extra creaminess and better yield)

👩‍🍳 INSTRUCTIONS

  1. In a large bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks.
  2. In another bowl, mix condensed milk and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture. Do not overmix.
  4. If using powdered milk, fold it in at this stage for a richer texture.
  5. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and smooth the top.
  6. Cover and freeze for at least 6–8 hours or overnight until firm.

💡 TIPS

  • Use very cold cream for better whipping volume.
  • Don’t overmix or the ice cream will lose fluffiness.
  • Add mix-ins like chocolate chips, nuts, or fruit before freezing.
  • For extra creamy texture, stir once after 2–3 hours of freezing.
  • Store in an airtight container to prevent ice crystals.
