When I indulge in dessert, it has to be good. This Vanilla Ice Cream is easy, creamy adaptable and oh so delicious!

Growing up, we put a lot of effort into making mom’s homemade vanilla ice cream. I’m not going to lie, it’s good, but it requires several ingredients and hours of hard work before it comes to fruition!

We don’t always have the luxury of breaking out the ice cream machine and spending hours beside it while it churns, tossing salt as we go.

Fortunately, there’s an incredibly good, two ingredient vanilla ice cream you can make it five minutes with almost no effort. It’s so incredible you’ll never feel the need to buy another carton of ice cream at the grocery store again!

Tips

  • Cold Cream – Make sure the heavy cream is cold before you whip it.
  • Freeze Time – After two hours of freezing, the ice cream will be at a soft serve consistency, freeze it longer if you prefer it to be more solid.
  • Add Vanilla – For even more vanilla flavor add Vanilla Extract or vanilla bean.
