Ice Cream Base

Method

Making the Ice Cream

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ice Cream Base

    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 completely dissolved.

  2. 2

    Chill the Mixture

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight. This allows the flavors to meld and the mixture to become very cold.

  3. 3

    Churn the Ice Cream

    Once chilled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.

  4. 4

    Add Mix-Ins

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

  5. 5

    Freeze the Ice Cream

    Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
