Ingredients
- White sugar — ¾ cup.
- Milk — 2 ½ cups.
- Whipping cream — 1 cup.
- Vanilla extract — 2 ⅓ tbsp.
Instructions
- Make sure to put the bowl from the ice cream maker in the freezer, preferably overnight.
- Heat a large saucepan.
- Stir in the sugar, milk, and cream together on low-medium heat until the sugar dissolves.
- Remove the mixture from the heat and add the vanilla.
- Chill in the refrigerator for 3-5 hours.
- Place the mixture in the ice cream maker, and process for half an hour.
- Let it freeze overnight.
Substitutions
- Condensed milk — Replacing whole milk with sweetened condensed milk will result in a much smoother texture. Though you should keep in mind that condensed milk is sweeter than whole milk, so it might come off as too sweet. Another good option would be using evaporated milk with a splash of water.
- Brown sugar — Keep in mind that swapping white sugar for brown sugar will provide some extra flavor to this recipe. Don’t be afraid to try brown sugar if you’re ever short on its white counterpart.
- Heavy cream — Though it’s considerably heavier in fat content, heavy cream can work as a substitute for whipping cream in our ice cream recipe for an ice cream maker. The end product will differ considerably, though.
Variations
- Chocolate chip — For those who want something more than vanilla ice cream, you can always go for chocolate chip ice cream. All you need is some extra cocoa powder and dark chocolate chips, (semi-sweet works well too) plus the base ingredients.
- Keto — Since keto diets are getting more and more popular nowadays, it’d only be normal if you’d rather have your ice cream keto. You can simply swap whole milk with a keto-friendly version, be it coconut milk or soy milk, and follow by finding a suitable replacement for whipped cream. When it comes to the latter, peanut butter and almond butter work well.
Equipment
- Measuring cups and spoons.
- Skillet.
- Medium-sized mixing bowl.
- Ice cream maker.
Tips
- Freeze the bowl — Your ice cream maker comes with a bowl, and it is crucial to freeze it overnight. Keep in mind that not freezing the bowl properly might result in a disaster for this recipe.
- Short on time? — If you find yourself short on time, feel free to skip the whole simmering part. Stirring everything cold works too.
