Ice Cream , Come and Get it!

Ice cream is pretty easy to make , and it only takes 5 ingredients. Yes. 5. Ones you can actaully pronounce, and ones you most likely have in the kitchen right now. I’m going to share the two most basic recipes, Vanilla and Chocolate. Once you can make these, you can come up with your own combinations and dress each up, but I’m telling you, it’s easy as 1-2-3. Chocolate takes 7 ingredients but again, all in your cupboard minute the heavy cream possibly.
Yes you need an ice cream maker, but I swear it’s worth the fifty bucks for one. As long as you keep the ice cream bowl itself frozen at all times you can have ice cream in just under 3 hours, 20 minutes if you don’t want to wait at all . It’s ready to eat right out of the maker , but I like chilling for two hours .
You could spend more than fifty of course, there’s different sizes. I got the smallest that makes about 6 cups per recipe. I bought a second bowl to freeze so I can make two batches right after another. Works for this family for now.
I can never eat just vanilla or just chocolate, I don’t enjoy them along, so if I make one, the other is not far behind. Double Recipe Day!
What are your favorite ice cream toppings? What’s your go to flavor?

This is so cool. We had a “toy” ice cream machine before and it made the ice cream almost instantly.

I didn’t know it was this easy to make ice cream. I would get my own ice cream maker and start making a batch of vanilla ice cream for myself.

I have been dying to try homemade ice cream. They were putting the machines on clearance at the store last week. If they do another drop on them, I’ll be picking one of those babies up to give these recipes a try!

This sounds really good and I could use it with some other dessert recipes. I’d love to make some with my daughter!

I love making my own ice cream. I’ve only done it a coupe of time, and only chocolate but boy was it delicious. I will have to try your two recipes, they look great!

I love ice cream especially vanilla, but I have never made my own. This will be a fun and yummy weekend activity.

I love ice cream and have been seriously thinking of getting an ice cream maker to make my own. Could be dangerous.

I’ve never made homemade ice cream. It’s surprisingly easy to make. It looks really delicious too.
