Classic Vanilla Bean No-Churn Ice Cream

A rich, velvety, and incredibly easy vanilla ice cream made without an ice cream maker using only 3 main ingredients.

  • Total Time: PT6H10M
  • Yield: 8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

2 cups heavy whipping cream, cold
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste or pure vanilla extract
Pinch of sea salt (optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Place a large mixing bowl and your whisk attachments in the freezer for about 15 minutes to ensure they are ice cold.
Step 2: Pour the cold heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl and beat on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form.
Step 3: In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla bean paste, and salt until smooth.
Step 4: Gently fold a large scoop of the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture to lighten it up.
Step 5: Carefully fold the remaining condensed milk mixture into the rest of the whipped cream using a spatula, being careful not to deflate the air.
Step 6: Transfer the mixture into a freezer-safe container and smooth the top.
Step 7: Cover with plastic wrap touching the surface and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight before serving.

Notes

Ensure your heavy cream is very cold for the best volume. You can add 1/2 cup of chocolate chips or fruit swirls for variation.
