How can I make ice cream at home?
As the mercury rises where you are, it’s natural to crave something cool and rejuvenating to beat the heat. And what better way to satisfy that craving than with a scoop (or two) of creamy, dreamy ice cream? The good news is that you don’t have to venture out to buy a tub – instead, you can whip up your own homemade ice cream in no time at all. And the best part? You won’t need any fancy equipment or machines; just some basic ingredients and a bit of elbow grease.
Here’s how to do it:Start by combining 2 cups of cold heavy whipping cream with 1 can of cold sweetened condensed milk (your choice of fat-free or regular) in a bowl. If you’re feeling extra fancy, add a teaspoon of vanilla extract for an added depth of flavor. Next, grab your trusty hand or stand mixer and whip the mixture on medium to high speed until it starts to thicken and form soft peaks.
Stop the machine, pour in the remaining condensed milk, and give everything a good whisking until it becomes stiff and creamy. Stir in that vanilla extract if you’re using it, and voila! You’ve got your ice cream base. Now’s the fun part: get creative with your flavors and toppings! Add some sprinkles of fresh fruit like strawberries or bananas for a sweet and tangy twist.
Once you’ve added all your desired goodies, transfer the mixture to an airtight container and pop it in the freezer overnight before indulging in your homemade ice cream masterpiece.
How do you make homemade ice cream without cream?
Make your own delicious homemade ice cream without breaking a sweat or compromising on your dietary restrictions! The key is to keep things simple and use minimal ingredients. You don’t need any fancy equipment or expensive creams to get started. In fact, you can make creamy and dreamy ice cream using just milk, sugar, and a dash of vanilla essence. Here’s the basic recipe: pour 500ml of milk into glass jars and let it chill in the freezer for a few hours.
Blend the mixture with 5 tablespoons of sugar and add a splash of vanilla essence (if you’re feeling fancy). Stir until your mixture transforms into a creamy delight – this should take no more than two minutes. And that’s your ice cream base! Feel free to get creative by adding your favorite fruits, nuts, or other toppings to give it an extra boost.
If you want to add an extra layer of flavor and creaminess, you can also whisk up an egg white until it becomes light and fluffy, then mix it with 500g of low-fat plain yogurt (and a drizzle of honey if you’re feeling sweet). Alternatively, if you do have an ice cream maker on hand, simply pour the mixture into the machine and let it do its magic before transferring it to the freezer. The result? A guilt-free, ridiculously delicious homemade ice cream that’s sure to satisfy your cravings.
