Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 0 minutes
Chilling time: 4 hours
Yield: 2 quarts ice cream
Ingredients
1 pint (16 fluid ounces) heavy whipping cream chilled
14 ounces sweetened condensed milk (homemade or store bought)
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Instructions
Place the cream in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (or a large bowl with a handheld mixer) and beat the cream on medium, then medium-high speed until stiff peaks form.
Pour the sweetened condensed milk and the vanilla into the bowl of whipped cream, and fold the whipped cream in until only a few bright white streaks remain.
Pour the mixture into a 2-quart freezer-safe container with a lid, and smooth the top.
Cover tightly and place in the freezer until firm (at least 4 hours).
Serve right from the freezer. It will not need to thaw at all to be scoopable.
