Only 4 ingredients are needed to make this incredibly smooth and creamy ice cream with colorful sprinkles that takes 10 minutes to mix. Use it to top brownies, pies or eat in a cone or bowl, plain, with vanilla cake crumbs or a chocolate sauce. You'll have everyone coming back for seconds. 

  • Total Time: 4 hours 15 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

Units
  • 2 cups cold cream (heavy, whipping, or heavy whipping)
  • 1 can (14oz or 397g) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract or 3/4 teaspoon vanilla paste
  • 1/4 cup sprinkles (rainbow jimmies)

Instructions

  1. Beat cold cream in a large mixing bowl until thick but not completely firm. 
  2. Pour the sweetened condensed milk into it and fold in with a spatula or whisk. 
  3. Add vanilla and stir until smooth and even colored. 
  4. Add sprinkles and fold them in lightly before they stain the ice cream base too much. This depends on the sprinkles you use. 
  5. Pour into a metal pan without a removable bottom (8-inch round or square pan with high sides or 2 medium loaf pans). Don't use a springform pan. 
  6. Freeze for 4-6 hours or until completely firm.
  7. Scoop it into bowls and serve with sauces, fresh fruit, or plain. 
  8. Cover with plastic wrap for longer storage. 

Notes

  • Organization: read the recipe first and ensure you have ingredients at the correct temperature, equipment, and enough workspace. This will make the process so much easier.
  • Sweetened condensed milk: depending on the country, you might find sweetened and unsweetened (or evaporated milk). Make sure it has sugar. 
  • Vanilla: make sure you use it unless you want a condensed milk flavor. I use pure vanilla extract or pure vanilla paste when available, but a good vanilla essence (artificially flavored) also works and is infinitely cheaper. 
  • Container: any metal pan (round, loaf, square) is excellent for storing ice cream in the freezer. Cover them with plastic wrap. 
  • How long does it take for condensed milk ice cream to freeze? It depends on the amount of ice cream and the size and shape of the container, but it usually takes 4-6 hours to be ready to eat. I make it the day before and forget about it. 
  • How to store it for a more extended period: use an airtight container (freezer-safe container) or cover the one you froze it in with a double layer of plastic wrap. 
  • Using low-fat or non-dairy alternatives instead of condensed milk: I don't recommend it because the texture and flavor will vary.
