I love homemade ice cream, but I don’t always have the time to tend to it when making it. That’s where this awesome recipe comes in! In just 5 minutes, you will have made your own ice cream, all you have to do is wait for it to freeze!

I can not tell you too many times how easy this recipe is! Because there are no eggs in this, you don’t need a machine and hours to make it. This is the perfect recipe to go to when you have guest later in the day – they will be so impressed that you are serving them your own homemade ice cream!

You only need four ingredients to make this creamy homemade ice cream!

No Churn Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Ingredients

  • Heavy Cream – Make sure it’s cold before whipping it.
  • Sweetened Condensed Milk – Makes this ice cream delightfully sweet and so simple!
  • Vanilla – Pure vanilla extract adds a hint of flavor.
  • Chocolate Chips – Milk chocolate, dark chocolate or semi-sweet (my go to) chocolate chips can be used!

How to Make Chocolate Chip Ice Cream

  1. Whip – In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks.
  2. Combine – Blend in the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla and stir in the chocolate chips.
  3. Freeze – Pour into a loaf pan, sprinkle some chips on top and freeze until solid.

What to Serve With Ice Cream

This ice cream is so perfect and creamy, you can easily eat it on its own in a bowl (or straight out of the tin!). It also works alongside so many other desserts. Try it with:

How Long Does The Ice Cream Take to Freeze?

It will take around two hours for the ice cream to freeze to a soft scoop texture, and three to four if you prefer it more solid. This ice cream is scoop-able straight from the loaf tin, but you can also line the tin with plastic wrap to remove it in one piece and then serve it sliced.

Tips

  • Make sure the heavy cream is cold before you whip it.
  • Line the loaf tin with plastic wrap if you wish to remove the whole block rather than scoop it.
  • 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.

To Store

Freeze covered in an airtight container or covered in plastic wrap up to two weeks.

    This recipe is so easy and delicious. The plastic wrap top was genius I loved cutting the ice cream rather than tedious scooping.

    This is so amazing that the recipe can be made so quickly. P.S. I love the tip about lining the pan with plastic. It’s actually easier and cleaner cutting it like cake and serving it!
