This no-churn recipe is inspired by the queen of British baking, Mary Berry, with her love for straightforward yet delicious desserts. The combination of sweetened condensed milk, cream, and a touch of vanilla makes for a smooth, creamy ice cream that’s easy to whip up.
Mary Berry-Inspired Condensed Milk Ice Cream
Ingredients:
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups heavy cream (whipping cream)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup crushed biscuits (such as Digestive biscuits or graham crackers) or chocolate chips (optional)
- A pinch of salt (optional, to enhance flavor)
Instructions:
- Whip the Cream:
- In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. This will give your ice cream its creamy and fluffy texture.
- Mix the Base:
- In another bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract. You can also add a pinch of salt at this stage for extra flavor.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream too much. This keeps the texture light and airy.
- Add Mix-ins (Optional):
- If you’d like to add crushed biscuits, chocolate chips, or any other mix-ins (like berries or nuts), gently fold them into the mixture at this point.
- Freeze:
- Transfer the mixture into a loaf pan or any container you prefer, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Cover with plastic wrap or a lid and freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or preferably overnight, until the ice cream is firm.
- Serve:
- Once frozen, scoop the ice cream into bowls or cones, and enjoy your homemade treat!
Tips:
- Flavor Variations: You can switch up the flavor by adding different extracts, like almond or orange, or swirl in fruit preserves for a fruity twist.
- Texture: If you prefer a smoother ice cream, you can blend the condensed milk and cream mixture before freezing. For added crunch, mix in your favorite crushed cookies or candy after the mixture is fully combined.
This Mary Berry-Inspired Condensed Milk Ice Cream is a wonderfully simple and creamy dessert that’s sure to become a favorite. No ice cream maker needed, just a few ingredients and a little patience while it freezes! Perfect for a hot summer day or any time you’re craving something sweet and cool.
