My Aunt’s Vanilla Ice Cream
This recipe is very simple to make. My aunt improved the quantities of ingredients year after year, so I recommend that you do not change the quantities described below.
Equipment
- Ice cream maker
Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy Cream
- 2 cups Whole Milk
- pinch Salt
- ¾ cups Sugar
- 2 tbsp Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- In a large bowl add all of the ingredients and mix until combined.
- If you don’t want just plain vanilla ice cream you can add fruit, chocolate chips, or even nuts as desired. If you have a regular ice cream maker, pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and mix for about 20 minutes.
- Transfer the mixture to an airtight container and freeze until firm (it takes about 4 hours) or freeze it according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The ice cream is ready to serve!
Notes
If you have a Ninja Creami or similar, you need to freeze the mixture for about 24 hours before using the machine.
