Prep Time15 minutes mins
Total Time8 hours hrs 15 minutes mins
Servings: 4
- 1 cups heavy whipping cream cold
- 0.3 cups sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.3 cups whole milk chilled
Whip the cream: In a large chilled bowl, whip 1 cups heavy whipping cream, cold until it thickens and forms stiff peaks.
Combine the flavors: Add 0.3 cups sweetened condensed milk and 1 teaspoons vanilla extract to the whipped cream. Mix gently but thoroughly until fully combined.
Add the milk: Pour in 0.3 cups whole milk, chilled and beat once more until smooth and airy.
Prep for freezing: Transfer the mixture into an airtight container, spreading it evenly.
Seal it up: Cover the surface directly with plastic wrap, pressing it down so it touches the cream. This prevents ice crystals from forming.
Freeze until set: Freeze until fully set and scoopable.
