What is No-Churn Ice Cream?

No-churn ice cream means it does not require an ice cream make r, or churning or cranking of any kind. It also doesn’t need copious amounts of rock salt and ice or cooking a custard of any kind. All you need is a few simple ingredients and an electric mixer.

How do you Make No-Cook, No-Churn Salted Caramel Candied Pecan Ice Cream?

• Make Candied pecans. I used this candied almond recip e, substituted pecan/omitted the cinnamon, but you can buy them too.
• Make salted caramel, let cool. You can also purchase your favorite caramel sauce at the store.
• Whip the heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form
• Add vanilla extract, then slowly add the sweetened condensed milk
• Fold in the nuts.
• Pour half the mixture into the pan, drizzle with caramel, add the rest of the ice cream mixture. Top with more caramel and nuts.
• Freeze 8 hours and enjoy.

Ingredients

• heavy whipping cream
• sweetened condensed milk

• candied pecans, homemade or store-bought
• salted caramel, homemade or store bought

How long will No-Churn Salted Caramel Candied Pecan Ice Cream last?

Ice cream leftovers (if you have any) can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 months, just make sure to keep it in an air tight container.

The salted caramel can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 weeks. It will need to be reheated when you want to use it as it will solidify.

Variations of No-Churn Ice Cream

Have you ever made no-churn ice cream? I’ve been making this no-churn ice cream for years for family and friends and everyone loves it. No one believes it is made with condensed milk and heavy cream or that it is so easy to make.

The best part about this no-cook, no-churn ice cream is that you can make it any time and in any flavor with any add in you like. Chocolate, coffee, vanilla, strawberry, pistachio, peach, chocolate chip, are a just a few favorites. Or go a little wild and make chocolate peanut butter cup and cookie ice cream or mocha fudge with chocolate brown chunks.

You can find more flavor combinations in Easy No-Churn Ice Cream: The ‘No Equipment Necessary’ Guide to Standout Homemade Ice Cream.

For those who have asked my ice cream cone scoop is from the 1990s’, there are a few available on Etsy and Ebay.

I have to warn you, no-churn ice cream is so easy and so good that you might eat the entire loaf pan yourself. How do I know? I do not like ice cream, in fact I never eat it, unless I make this no-churn version. When I made this salted caramel candied pecan version I ate half of this pan the day I took these photos.
