🧁 Ingredients For Creamy Ice Cream with Condensed Milk

• 2 cups (480 ml) heavy whipping cream, chilled

• 1 can (14 oz / 400 g) sweetened condensed milk

• 1 tsp vanilla extract (or any preferred flavoring)

• Optional mix-ins: chocolate chips, nuts, caramel, fruit puree, etc.

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Whip the Cream:
   In a large chilled bowl, beat the heavy cream with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form (about 3–4 minutes).

2. Mix Condensed Milk & Flavoring:
   In another bowl, whisk together the condensed milk and vanilla extract (or other flavors like cocoa powder, coffee, or fruit puree).

3. Combine:
   Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture. Use a spatula to mix carefully — keep the mixture airy for that light, creamy texture.

4. Add Mix-ins (Optional):
   Fold in chocolate chips, fruit bits, or nuts if desired.

5. Freeze:
   Pour the mixture into an airtight container, smooth the top, and cover with plastic wrap or a lid.
   Freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until firm.

6. Serve:
   Scoop and enjoy! For easier scooping, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before serving.

📝 Notes:

• Keep your cream very cold before whipping — it helps create better volume and texture.

• Don’t overmix after combining; it can make the texture dense.

• You can divide the base into smaller containers and flavor each one differently (chocolate, strawberry, coffee, etc.).

💡 Tips:

• Add a pinch of salt to balance sweetness.

• For chocolate ice cream: mix ¼ cup cocoa powder with the condensed milk before folding in the whipped cream.

• For fruity flavors: swirl in ½ cup fruit puree like mango or strawberry before freezing.

• Use sweetened condensed milk, not evaporated milk.

🍨 Servings:
