EASY, SPECTACULAR FREEZER ICE CREAM - NO MACHINE NEEDED!



Easy, Spectacular Freezer Ice Cream - No Machine Needed! image

Thick, rich, and creamy, and with a texture to rival (or even surpass) homemade ice cream from a machine. Seriously. My machine-made ice cream often turns out a little icy, but this doesn't. Just dense creaminess. And it's super simple to make. If you can operate a hand mixer, you can make this. "Cooking" time is freezing time.

Time 4h10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup whipping cream, chilled
1/3 cup unsweetened fruit puree (or other flavorings, see note below)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix condensed milk and fruit puree/flavorings thoroughly.
  • In a separate bowl, beat chilled whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
  • Fold whipping cream into condensed milk mixture, along with any stir-ins (like cookie pieces, fruit chunks, candy, etc.) that you desire.
  • Pour into a plastic or metal container (not glass), cover, and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight. Scoop and enjoy!
  • Makes about 1 1/2 pints (3 cups).
  • Note on flavorings: Fruit puree or a strong fruit juice (even concentrate) works well, but be sure it's unsweetened or relatively sour or your ice cream will be too sweet. Lemon juice works great, as does margarita mix; top with crushed pretzels when serving for a salty-sweet treat. Or use brewed coffee or tea. If using tea, steep 3 teabags in 1/3 cup of hot water for about 5-7 minutes and press the water out of the teabags when removing them. I just made an excellent chamomile tea ice cream this way; it had a lovely, delicate flavor.
  • Another note: I've heard you can substitue Cool Whip for the whipping cream--I'd go with about 1 1/2 to 2 cups--but as I haven't tried it myself, I can't vouch for the results. It would make it lower fat and easier to put together, but the texture might suffer.

CAMPING MADE EASY: FREEZER BAG ICE CREAM



Camping Made Easy: Freezer Bag Ice Cream image

Imagine being in the wilderness, camping with your family, and the nearest town is an hour away. It is hot and the kids are restless and all you hear is "I'm bored... there's nothing to do". Well, your coolers are stocked with food, beverages, and of course, ice... Why not exclaim "Who wants some Ice Cream"?! Well, it can be done without leaving your campsite with just a few simple things on hand. (I have an alternative option for Recipe #509906 that works just as well). Chocolate syrup or a different flavored extract (such as mint) can be added to change this up. Your choice. This is great to use at a children's birthday party, also. The kids can make there own ice cream to go with the birthday cake. I hope you and your family find this fun and enjoyable. *Note: Cook time is shaking/freezing time.

EASY KULFI (ICE CREAM WITHOUT AN ICE CREAM FREEZER!)



Easy Kulfi (Ice Cream Without an Ice Cream Freezer!) image

Someone was asking about kulfi on the boards awhile back; I got interested and made some myself! Found this online. It's easy and it tastes great--and the best part is that NO ice cream freezer is needed! (prep time is freezing time). It's also very cheap---I could imagine any college kid with a fridge/freezer in his dorm could make this as well! Enjoy!

Time 12h

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (14 ounce) can fat-free evaporated milk
1 cup light cream (I used half and half here)
1 (14 ounce) can low fat sweetened condensed milk
other flavoring (I sprinkled in some cinnamon, but I would imagine that chocolate or something else would work here.)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, stir together well the evaporated milk, condensed milk, cream, and optional other flavor.
  • Pour into popsicle molds, Indian stainless steel kulfi molds, or even a small bowl.
  • Freeze overnight.
  • Remove from the molds by resting their bottoms very briefly in warm to hot water (if you do this for too long you'll have a gooey mess!).

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 can(s) sweetened condensed milk
2 c heavy cream cold
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. First you need to chill bowl and beaters a few minutes before you start. While doing that assemble your ingredients.
  • 2. Using electric mixer beat heavy cream, condensed milk and vanilla in large bowl for 3-5 minutes until it forms thick stiff peaks.
  • 3. Transfer to a freezer safe bowl,cover freeze until firm,at least 8 hours but 24 hours is best. Can be stored up to 2 weeks (if it lasts that long!)
  • 4. For chocolate ice cream melt 8oz bittersweet chocolate in microwave for 30 secs..cool slightly add to heavy cream mixture..beat 3-5 minutes till stiff peaks form. I used chips for this easier melting..less time in microwave. Adjust chocolate to taste if too rich.
  • 5. For fruit flavored ice cream you need 3/4lb fresh or frozen fruit purreed. (Makes about 1 cup) Add 1/2 the fruit while whipping the cream mixture and the other 1/2 cup dump on top while in bowl and use a knife to swirl it in.
