Today, we’re diving into the world of ice cream, and trust me, you won’t want to miss this!. No more boring, store-bought ice cream with weird ingredients!

Let’s head over to the recipe aisle and make this magic happen First, you’ll need to freeze the bowl of your ice cream maker. Yep, it’s that simple Just pop it in the freezer at least 12 hours before you’re ready to churn.

While you’re waiting for the bowl to chill, let’s make the ice cream base. Combine the cream, milk, sugar, vanilla, and salt in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Warm for 5 minutes, whisking often, until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is warmed through.

Now, it’s time to chill the ice cream base. Transfer it to a heatproof bowl, cover, and chill for 2 hours or overnight. Don’t worry, this is the hardest part – waiting!

When you’re ready to make ice cream, churn the ice cream mixture in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. We love using our ice cream maker attachment – it’s a game-changer!

Once the ice cream is churned, it’s time to get creative You can add your favorite mix-ins, like fresh strawberries, mini chocolate chips, or cookie crumbs. The possibilities are endless!

Transfer the soft ice cream to a quart-size airtight container and press a piece of plastic wrap or foil into the top to prevent ice crystals from forming. Freeze for at least 2 hours and enjoy!
