Sam’s Easy two-ingredient ice cream recipe
Sam’s two-ingredient recipe is creamy, dreamy, and just 32p a scoop. Quick to make, easy to freeze, and even easier to love.
Commenting on the recipe, Sam said: I love how easy this ice cream recipe is to make. You don’t even have to stir it to prevent ice crystals. The ingredients make it naturally creamy, and at just 32p per portion, it’s a simple, budget-friendly treat for hot days.
Ingredients
- 1 x can Carnation condensed milk (£1.70, Iceland)
- 1 x tub of double cream (£1.50, Iceland)
- Total ingredients cost: £3.20, 32p per portion (makes 10)
Optional flavourings:
- Vanilla extract (£1.50, Iceland)
- Raspberry desert sauce (£1.85, Iceland)
- Chocolate – mix in your favourite bar
Method
In a large bowl, whisk the double cream until it becomes thick. You’ll know its ready when peaks have formed in the cream, or you the cream sticks to the whisk when you lift it out of the bowl.
Once the cream has reached the desired consistency, pour in the condensed milk and mix thoroughly until everything is well combined.
That’s it! Pop the mixture in a freezable container with a lid and leave it to freeze. It can take about 6-8 hours to freeze, so prepare in the morning and freeze throughout the day for a sweet post-work snack, or freeze overnight.
Flavour variations
Sam says:
“It’s so easy to personalise this recipe and make your favourite ice cream variations. For a really easy option, try the caramel version of Carnation sweetened condensed milk, it’s great for a toffee flavour and usually costs the same as the plain version from a supermarket.
“Or if you want to create your own raspberry ripple, you can use raspberry desert sauce. It’s really easy to make and takes just one extra step. Make the mixture as usual, and then when you’re ready to freeze it, put a third of the mixture in the freezing tub. Then squirt a thin line of raspberry desert sauce up and down the mixture to create your layer of sauce. Then repeat this process with the rest of the mixture, so that you have layers of ice-cream and raspberry sauce, then freeze as usual. You can get raspberry desert sauce for as little as £1.85 from your supermarket, so this recipe helps you make raspberry ripple for just 53p a portion.”
