A rich and creamy no-churn vanilla ice cream made with sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and whipped cream for a perfectly balanced, scoopable treat—no machine needed. Makes 1 quart of ice cream.

Ingredients

  • cups (532 g) cold heavy cream
  • ½ cup (153 g) sweetened condensed milk
  • ½ cup (118 g) evaporated milk
  • 4 tbsp (2 oz / 58 g) full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tbsp vanilla bean paste
  • 1 tbsp light corn syrup
  • ½ tsp kosher salt

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, whip the cold heavy cream to stiff peaks using a hand mixer or stand mixer. Set aside.
  • In another large bowl, whisk the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. (No lumps!)
  • Add in the sweetened condense milk, evaporated milk, salt, vanilla bean paste and corn syrup whisking until smooth. Its important to ensure there are no lumps, otherwise your ice cream will be lumpy.
  • Gently fold the whipped cream into the vanilla mixture in 2–3 additions. Take your time and use a spatula to keep the mixture light and airy. At this stage you can add any toppings such as chocolate, oreos, salted caramel etc. Get creative!
  • Pour the mixture into a standard loaf pan or 1–2 airtight containers. Smooth the top and press a layer of parchment or plastic wrap directly onto the surface. Cover well.
  • Freeze for at least 6 hours, or overnight, until firm. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before scooping if it’s too firm.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks for best texture and flavor.
  • This ice cream is the perfect base for any flavors! Swirl in caramel, crushed Oreos, nuts, candies, or chocolate. The options are endless.
