This homemade ice cream is unbelievably creamy, smooth, and rich—no ice cream machine required. With just a few simple ingredients and a bit of mixing, you can create a large 2-liter batch that tastes just like premium store-bought ice cream, but fresher and more delicious.
Yield
About 2 liters
Ingredients
2 cups (500 ml) cold heavy cream
1 can (400 g) sweetened condensed milk
2 cups (500 ml) full-fat milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup sugar (adjust to taste)
Pinch of salt
Optional Add-ins (for flavor):
Chocolate chips
Crushed cookies
Fresh fruit pieces
Cocoa powder or melted chocolate
Instructions
Whip the cream In a large chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. This step helps create the light, airy texture.
Mix the base In another bowl, combine condensed milk, regular milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until smooth and well blended.
Combine gently Fold the whipped cream into the milk mixture slowly, keeping the mixture airy and fluffy.
Add flavors (optional) Stir in chocolate chips, fruit, or any mix-ins of your choice.
Freeze Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container. Cover tightly and freeze for at least 6–8 hours or overnight.
Serve & enjoy Let it sit for 5 minutes before scooping for the perfect creamy texture.
Result
A silky, creamy homemade ice cream with a rich flavor and soft texture—no machine, no fuss, just pure dessert happiness.
If you want, I can also turn this into chocolate, strawberry, or Oreo versions.
