No Churn Chocolate Chip Ice Cream

Make deliciously creamy ice cream with a few simple ingredients at home with this No Churn Chocolate Chip Ice Cream.

I don't know whether knowing how to make ice cream without an ice cream maker is a good thing or a bad thing, but it certainly is E.A.S.Y.

When I found a recipe for no churn ice cream from Like Mother Like Daughter and then made my version of their Key Lime Pie Ice Cream with my ice cream machine, I promised myself I would try a no churn version of ice cream and started out slow by making this 4 ingredient No Churn Chocolate Chip Ice Cream.

I know many people that don't have an ice cream maker; I was one of them until about 1 ½ years ago, but I never knew how simple it was to make your own ice cream at home and still have it be creamy and delicious.

What ingredients do you need to make No Churn Ice Cream?

I wanted to start out with a basic vanilla; then decided to chop up some chocolate chunks and used the following ingredients:

• Heavy cream
• Sweetened condensed milk-make sure you're using the thick creamy kind not the thin evaporated milk
• Pure vanilla extract-when making ice cream I prefer using pure vanilla rather than imitation vanilla; the flavor is more concentrated. You can read about the different types of vanilla here: Joy from Joy of Baking
• Chopped Chocolate-you can use milk, semi-sweet or dark chocolate; chips or chunks. I had some semi-sweet chocolate Nestle chunks so I chopped up some of those.

How do you make No Churn Chocolate Chip Ice Cream?

Once you have all of your ingredients, you'll want to get out your stand or hand mixer and a large bowl.

1. Whip the heavy cream into stiff peaks.
2. Gently fold in the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla and chocolate by hand. Don't over mix; just enough to form a creamy batter.
3. Place ice cream mixture in a container and freeze for at least 2 hours. I used a loaf pan then covered it with plastic wrap, but have also used those family size plastic containers with a lid. I also like my ice cream firm so I froze mine for about 6 hours.

That's it! Easy right? This ice cream was a little sweet, but so creamy. Needless to say the family loved it so I'll be trying other flavors again real soon.

The entire process took only 10 minutes to prepare before freezing and in a few hours you can have homemade No Churn Chocolate Chip Ice Cream. ~Enjoy!
