Preparation
Combine Base Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Chill Mixture
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
Churning
Churn the Ice Cream Base
Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes.
Add Mix-ins
If desired, add any optional mix-ins like chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or fresh fruit in the last 5 minutes of churning.
Freezing
Transfer to Container
Once the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency, transfer it to an airtight container.
Freeze
Cover the container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
