Whipped Milk Ice Cream - no machine needed to whip up this two ingredients treat!
Did you know you can whip evaporated milk to a stage of delicious fluff?
Did you know that you can make delicious ice cream if you... freeze it?
When I found this recipe, I flipped. Then I composed myself. But then I flipped again!
Look at the ingredients list.
Yep, two. Sugar and milk. Evaporated milk. With vitamin D added.
If you haven't tried making your own ice cream yet, I am sure you at least thought about it.
I can see ice cream popping up all over the web. All of them delicious. Most of them using heavy whipping cream and sweetened condensed milk. Some even eggs. Most of them want you to use an ice cream maker.
I am hiring my KitchenAid mixer to do the whipping and my freezer to do the freezing. ( But if you are lucky own an ice cream maker, just skip the freezer part and churn your ice cream in the machine. )
There are so many advantages to this recipe. It's fast ( 5 minutes of whipping it together ), easy ( only two ingredients ) and so versatile ( add vanilla extract and you have vanilla ice cream ). And did I say, cost effective? I payed 80 cents for the can of evaporated milk. And one can of milk will make you so much ice cream, you will want to swim in it! I told ya, it will be life-changing. 🙂
I might be wrong here, but I tried to count calories on this and it came out to 47 calories per serving. Would it be possible???

When your ice cream looks like this, it's ready to be stored in the container.
My Hubby said: "Just like Dairy Queen!". Soft-serve, fluffy, delicious ice cream. They are not as dense and rich as ice cream made with eggs and heavy whipping cream, but they melt in your mouth and leave you truly satisfied.

Jo says
Hi, if I cut the sugar in half will it affect the consistency? I was hoping to introduce it to my 1 year old!
Anna says
Hi Jo! I did not test this recipe with half the amount of sugar so I can't promise results. Let me know if you give it a try!
Rachel says
We tried your recipe because I accidentally purchased evaporated milk instead of sweetened condensed milk... and we LOVED it! So easy and turned out delicious 😋 Thank you!!
Maame says
Thanks for this recipe. I used honey instead of sugar and it's so delicious.
Annabelle says
I was brought up with similar ice cream but caramel. When you whip your milk then add a tin of top and bottom caramel. Or manjarblanco as I know it . Then freeze iut again. Beautiful.

I just used this recipe to make pumpkin ice cream. I added 1 cup of pumpkin puree (homemade! 😀 ), 1 tsp. cinnamon and a few dashes of pumpkin spice to the ingredients. It's freezing now, so I hope it turns out. Thanks for this simple (and cheap) homemade ice cream recipe! 🙂

By repeating it 4 times, do you mean I need to put it in the freezer for 1 hour, and I minute of whipping 4 times? Then, altogether its 4 hours and 4 minutes of whipping?
Sk says
This is so awesome! Can u reduce the amount of sugar? Will it effect the ice cream? Like texture wise? I was think a 1/2 cup to 3/4. Thanks! 🙂
CrunchyCreamySw says
Hi! You can as much sugar as you like. It's just for the taste because the milk is not sweet.
sk says
will a blender work? is it suppose to have a thick liquid consistency? thaks for the fast response! 🙂
CrunchyCreamySw says
I do think that blender will work - the idea is to whip the milk. Let me know if you try it that way!
Sk says
Will hand beaters work? Or a hand blender? I tried this with milk b4 using hand beaters lol what can I do to make with out a stand mixer? Thanks
Sk says
Also will a blender work?
Sk says
This looks awesome! Can I reduced the amount of sugar? will it effect the ice cream in any way? Like the texture?
Kat says
This is so awesome considering that I'm a teen and I freaking love ice cream. I'm so glad I found this simple recipe. Can't wait to tell my friends. Thanks. ilysm!!!! 🙂
Helen @ ruralhome says
Just made this- can't wait to see how this comes out once frozen- my previous attempts at ice cream without an ice cream maker have been 'crystallized' so I'm really hoping this will be as yummy as it looks! 🙂 I used around 2/3rds of a cup of icing sugar (I'm from the UK so I think that is the alternative to powdered sugar)
M says
This sounds great! Do you think it would work with sweetened condensed milk instead and then you could skip or lower the sugar?
Alishia says
I just made this with coconut milk, strawberry preserves and belvita golden oat biscuits. SOO GOOD! Thank you for the recipe
