Base Ingredients

Optional Mix-ins

Method

Preparation of Ice Cream Base

  1. 1

    Whisk Together 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.

  2. 2

    Chill the Mixture

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results. This will help the flavors to meld.

Churning the Ice Cream

  1. 3

    Prepare Ice Cream Maker

    Ensure your ice cream maker is properly assembled and the bowl is frozen (if required by your model).

  2. 4

    Churn the Mixture

    Pour the chilled mixture into the ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.

Adding Mix-ins and Freezing

  1. 5

    Incorporate Optional Mix-ins

    If desired, add any optional mix-ins such as chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or fruit puree during the last 5 minutes of churning.

  2. 6

    Transfer to Freezer

    Once the ice cream is churned, transfer it to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours to firm up further before serving.
