Method

Preparation

  1. 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 fully dissolved and the mixture is uniform.

  2. 2

    Chill the Mixture

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or until it is thoroughly chilled. This step helps to enhance the flavors.

Churning

  1. 3

    Churn the Ice Cream

    Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker. Churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically around 20-25 minutes, until the mixture thickens and reaches a soft-serve consistency.

  2. 4

    Add Optional Mix-ins

    If using, add your choice of chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or sprinkles during the last 5 minutes of churning.

Freezing

  1. 5

    Freeze the Ice Cream

    Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container. Smooth out the top with a spatula and cover tightly. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Scoop the ice cream into bowls or cones and enjoy! Optionally, top with additional sprinkles or mix-ins.
