Sure! Here’s a simple recipe for a frozen tray dessert:
Ingredients:
- 2 cups of heavy cream
- 1 can (14 ounces) of sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- Your choice of mix-ins (chocolate chips, chopped nuts, fruit, cookie crumbles, etc.)
Instructions:
- Whip the Cream: In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. This means that when you lift the beaters or whisk out of the cream, the peaks that form hold their shape rather than collapsing back into the cream.
- Combine Ingredients: Gently fold in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract into the whipped cream until well combined. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream too much.
- Add Mix-ins: Now is the time to add your desired mix-ins. You can add anything from chocolate chips to fruit or nuts. Gently fold them into the mixture until evenly distributed.
- Prepare Tray: Line a baking tray with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Make sure the tray has edges to contain the mixture.
- Spread Mixture: Pour the mixture onto the prepared tray and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
- Freeze: Place the tray in the freezer and let it freeze for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, until it is completely frozen.
- Serve: Once frozen, remove the tray from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly. Then, use a sharp knife to cut the frozen dessert into squares or rectangles.
- Enjoy: Serve your frozen tray dessert squares immediately and enjoy!
Feel free to customize this recipe with your favorite flavors and mix-ins. You can also experiment with different extracts, like almond or mint, to change up the flavor profile.
