Description
A simple, creamy, and rich no-churn ice cream made with just heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, and Oreos. This dessert requires no ice cream maker and delivers restaurant-quality texture with minimal effort.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream (cold)
- 1 can (14oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- 1 package (14.3oz) Oreo cookies, crushed
- Optional: ½ cup white chocolate chips, ½ cup crushed nuts, or chocolate syrup drizzle
Instructions
- Line an 8×4 loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the long sides for easy removal.
- Crush the Oreo cookies into a mix of small chunks and larger pieces using a food processor or a Ziploc bag with a rolling pin. Set aside, reserving about ¼ cup for topping.
- In a large, cold mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip.
- Stir the sweetened condensed milk well to ensure it is smooth. If using, mix in the vanilla extract.
- Gently fold the sweetened condensed milk into the whipped cream using a rubber spatula until uniform. Avoid vigorous stirring to maintain airiness.
- Gently fold in the crushed Oreos until just combined.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle the reserved cookies on top.
- Cover tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and freeze for at least 6 hours, or overnight, until solid.
- To serve, lift the ice cream out of the pan using the parchment paper. Let it sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly before scooping.
Notes
Keep all equipment and ingredients cold for best whipping results. Do not use light cream or half-and-half as they will not whip properly. For a vegan version, substitute heavy cream with chilled coconut cream and condensed milk with vegan condensed milk. Use gluten-free cookies if needed.
