No-Churn Vanilla Ice Cream
LauraF
“This is really yummy and so easy! I think I like this better than commercial ice cream,” says Allrecipes member Ivy, who tried making this homemade frozen treat in her own kitchen.
It’s so easy because you just need to use an electric mixer to fluff up whipped cream, then fold that into a mixture of sweetened condensed milk and vanilla. Then all that’s left to do is freeze the sweet vanilla ice cream until hardened—about five hours.

No-Churn Rainbow Mermaid Ice Cream
LauraF
Like the 21st century version of the 1990s classic rainbow sherbet, this mermaid ice cream gets its vibrant hues from food coloring and colorful sprinkles swirled through the custard. That custard, by the way, is lusciously creamy, courtesy of easy-freezing heavy cream and sweetened condensed milk. Freeze for six hours and prepare for “oohs” and “aahs.”

Pistachio Chip Ice Cream
“This pistachio chip ice cream brings the flavors of the popular Dubai chocolate bar to a no-churn ice cream,” says Chef John. “Studded with roasted, salted pistachios and dark chocolate chips, this recipe is made with an easy milk syrup, invented by Chef John, instead of using the typical shortcut for no-churn desserts, sweetened condensed milk. For best results, chill all of your tools, containers, and ingredients so that everything stays cool.”
