Here’s a very easy homemade ice cream recipe 🍨 that doesn’t require an ice cream machine.

- In a large bowl, beat the heavy cream with a mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Mix the Base
- In another bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract.
- Fold Together
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture until smooth and fluffy.
- Freeze
- Pour into a container, cover, and freeze for 4–6 hours or until firm.

✅ Flavor Ideas
- Chocolate: mix in ½ cup cocoa powder or chocolate syrup.
- Strawberry: fold in chopped strawberries.
- Cookies & Cream: add crushed chocolate sandwich cookies.
- Mango: blend ½ cup mango puree into the mixture.
⭐ Tip: Put the mixing bowl and beaters in the fridge for 10 minutes before whipping the cream—it helps the cream whip faster.
