Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup heavy cream, cold
  • 1/2 can (7 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 cup mix-ins (optional)

Method
 

  1. Pour the heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, and salt into a clean 16-ounce mason jar. Stir or shake briefly to combine.
  2. Seal the lid tightly and shake vigorously for about 5 minutes, until the mixture thickens and doubles in volume.
  3. If using mix-ins, stir them in gently, then seal the jar and freeze for at least 4 hours.
  4. Let the jar sit at room temperature for 5 minutes, then scoop and serve.

Notes

For the creamiest ice cream, shake the jar for 10 seconds every hour during the first 3 hours of freezing. If the ice cream is too hard, let it soften on the counter before scooping.
