Have you priced ice cream lately? Like most grocery items, the price is going up astronomically.

If you enjoy this frozen dessert, but not the current price tags, did you know you can make your own no churn ice cream at home on a budget?

While I make a lot of things from scratch, one thing I’ve put off doing until lately is ice cream. I hate the amount of time and effort a machine takes.

However, I recently found out how easy it is to make it is to make your own no churn style version.

In our next easy recipe, I share how to make this delicious frozen treat and to have it ready for your family and friends to enjoy.

• 16 oz heavy cream
• 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
• 1/4 – 1/2 cup butterscotch topping

• This recipe makes 4-6 servings

• 10 minutes prep time and 8 hours + freezer time.

• Electric or stand mixer
• bread pan or similar size container
• Plastic wrap

To get started on this recipe, add the heavy cream to a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer. Beat it on high for 3 minutes.

Next, you will want to add sweetened condensed milk and beat the butterscotch ice cream mixture on high for 1 minute.

Once it is well mixed, pour half of the mix into a bread pan,

After the first section of ice cream is placed in the pan, you will want to carefully drizzle 1/2 of the butterscotch.

Use a knife and swirl the butterscotch. Repeat this by adding the rest of the ice cream mix and butterscotch.

Cover with plastic wrap.

Freeze for at least 8 hours, or overnight, before serving.

No-churn ice cream is a quick and easy way to make homemade ice cream without an ice cream maker. It’s made with just a few simple ingredients, and it can be customized to your liking. Here are a few tips for making the best no-churn ice cream:

• Use high-quality ingredients. The quality of your ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your ice cream. Use heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, and good vanilla extract.
• Whip the cream until stiff peaks form. This will give your dessert a light and airy texture.
• Mix gently. Fold in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract gently. Overmixing can make your ice cream grainy.
• Freeze Overnight. Freeze the ice cream in an airtight container for at least 8 hours, or overnight if possible. This will give the recipe time to harden and develop its flavor.
• Add mix-ins before freezing. This is a great way to customize your ice cream and add some extra flavor and texture. Some popular mix-ins include chocolate chips, nuts, fruit, and candy.

Here are some additional tips:

• If you don’t have a stand mixer, you can whip the cream by hand. Just be sure to use a whisk or a hand mixer and beat the cream for at least 5 minutes, or until it forms stiff peaks.
• If you want to make a flavored no-churn ice cream, add the flavoring extract to the sweetened condensed milk before folding it into the whipped cream.
• You can also add alcohol to your no-churn ice cream. Just be sure to use a small amount, as too much alcohol can make your ice cream icy.
• No-churn ice cream can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.

With these tips, you’ll be making delicious no-churn ice cream in no time!
