How Does No-Churn Ice Cream Work?
Traditional ice cream is made with an ice cream base that is usually made on the stove and often includes eggs. The base is then put into an ice cream maker where it is chilled and churned with a stirring paddle.
But no-churn ice cream takes all that work (and extra dishes) out of the equation. By simply combining whipped heavy cream and sweetened condensed milk, you will achieve a perfect ice cream base, no ice cream maker or special equipment required! After that, just add your favorite flavors and mix-ins to create the ice cream of your choosing.
