What is "No-Churn" Ice Cream?

No-churn ice cream is ice cream that is made without the need for an ice cream maker. It comes together with a standing or handheld mixer, a spatula, a loaf pan, and a freezer. It's just that easy!

How does it work?

When ice cream is made in an ice cream maker, the air is whipped into the cream mixture as it churns. Aeration lightens the mixture as it freezes in the machine. Similarly, in the case of no-churn ice cream, the air is introduced into the heavy whipping cream as it is whipped. This lightens the cream which is then folded into the sweetened condensed milk.

Sweetened condensed milk is milk that has had the water removed and sugar added to it. Because of its concentration and lack of water, the sweetened condensed milk freezes well when mixed with the aerated cream. Thus, giving us ice cream.

Ingredients

This ice cream recipe is incredibly simple in preparation and process. It uses only four ingredients and comes together in about fifteen minutes. The hardest part of this recipe is waiting for the ice cream to set in the freezer!

• Heavy Whipping Cream - The cream has to be cold for whipping. For the best-whipped cream, place the mixing bowl and whisk attachment in the refrigerator to chill as well.
