Make Classic Vanilla Ice Cream at Home
Nothing beats a scoop of fresh homemade vanilla ice cream. This simple two-ingredient vanilla ice cream recipe is perfect for first-time ice cream makers because it needs no eggs, no cooking, and very little preparation.
Using your Rasoishop Ice Cream Maker, prepare the chilled mixture, pour it into the machine, and let it churn into a smooth, creamy dessert in about 20 minutes.
Ingredients
- ✔ 400 ml chilled heavy cream
- ✔ 1 Vanilla pod, split and scraped, or 2 tsp vanilla extract
- ✔ 200 ml sweetened condensed milk
- ✔ A pinch of salt
Instructions:
- ✔ Chill the Ice Cream Maker Bowl: Before starting, make sure the bowl is thoroughly chilled. A cold bowl helps the mixture churn efficiently and gives you a smoother final texture.
- ✔ Prepare the Vanilla Mixture: Add the chilled heavy cream, condensed milk, vanilla seeds or vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to a bowl. Whisk gently until combined. Do not whip the cream - the goal is to mix the ingredients.
- ✔ Chill the Ice Cream Base: Place the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Starting with a well-chilled mixture helps the ice cream churn faster and finish smoother.
- ✔ Pour Into the Rasoishop Ice Cream Maker: Start your Rasoishop Ice Cream Maker and pour the chilled vanilla mixture into the running machine. Let the machine churn for about 20 minutes, or until the mixture develops a soft, creamy, scoopable consistency.
- ✔ Serve Fresh or Freeze: For a soft-serve style dessert, serve immediately. For firm scoops, transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for 3 - 4 hours.
