Method
Preparation of Base
- 1
Mix the Base Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk together until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
- 2
Chill the Mixture
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or overnight if you have time. This helps the flavors meld and improves the texture of the ice cream.
Churning the Ice Cream

Prepare the Ice Cream Maker
Make sure your ice cream maker is properly assembled and that the bowl is frozen (if required by your model).
- 4
Churn the Mixture
Pour the chilled mixture into the ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This typically takes about 20-25 minutes until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Adding Flavorings
- 5
Incorporate Flavor Additions
If using optional flavor additions like chocolate chips, crushed cookies, or fresh fruit, add them during the last 5 minutes of churning to ensure they are evenly distributed.
Freezing the Ice Cream
- 6
Transfer to a Container
Once churning is complete, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container. Smooth the top with a spatula.
- 7
Freeze Until Firm
Cover the container and freeze the ice cream for at least 4 hours, or until firm enough to scoop.
