Sure, here’s a simple recipe for homemade ice cream:
Ingredients:
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions:
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Chill Mixture: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or overnight if possible. Chilling the mixture helps to ensure a creamier texture when it’s churned.
- Churn Ice Cream: Once the mixture is thoroughly chilled, pour it into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This usually takes about 20-30 minutes until the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency.
- Freeze: Transfer the churned ice cream into an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
- Serve: Scoop out your homemade ice cream into bowls or cones and enjoy! You can also add your favorite toppings like chocolate chips, nuts, fruit, or caramel sauce.
