Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream cold
- 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups fresh or frozen cherries pitted and roughly chopped
- Chocolate chunks
- Ice cream cones for serving
Instructions
- Place a loaf pan in your freezer to chill while preparing your ice cream.
- In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the chilled heavy cream until it thickens and stiff peaks form (this takes several minutes).
- Fold the sweetened condensed milk with vanilla extract until just combined. Gently fold in the cherries and chocolate chunks. (Optional: reserve a handful of cherries or chocolate chunks to garnish the top of the ice cream).
- Remove the chilled loaf pan from the freezer and put the ice cream mixture into the loaf pan. Garnish with any reserved cherry or chocolate chunks.
- Place the loaf pan back into the freezer for 6-8 hours until the ice cream is fully set.
- When ready to serve, scoop in bowls or scoop into an ice cream cone, enjoy!
Notes
Storage :
Store leftover ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for 3-4 weeks or store it in the loaf pan with plastic wrap for up to 1 week.
Tips:
- Place your loaf pan in the freezer to chill while preparing your ice cream for best results.
- Freezing the ice cream in a metal container will make it freeze faster.
- This homemade ice cream is very soft and melts quicker than store-bought ice cream. Don't leave it out for too long!
