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???
Would you like to save this recipe?
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.

I just came across your post today, and I am absolutely loving it! There's such a dearth of recipes out there for your layman (read: poor, underfunded, and machine-less) kitchen cooks that this one is a real refresher. Thank you for sharing it--I can't wait for one final excuse to whip this up before the summer "ends"! Looking forward to more fantastic and accessible recipes.

Aww, thanks so much, Ala! Enjoy!
Asiya says
Wow!!! 2 ingredients..looks so yummy! I've bee experimenting with making a low fat ice cream with milk, gelatin, egg yolks and condensed milk.
How is the texture of this? Does it become icicly after it freezes?
Anna @ Crunchy Creamy Sweet says
Hi Asiya! This ice cream will remind you of soft serve from Dairy Queen. It doesn't get icicly at all 🙂 Unless you add something that contains water to it. Hope you will give them a try! Thanks for stopping by!
Asiya says
Thank you for your quick reply! I am definitely going to give it a try...I have a can of evaporated milk so I'm going to stick it in the fridge.

Great idea. Hmmm I think they do look as good, dense, and rich as the ice creams with eggs!

Kara says
My hubby and I made this today using our Cuisinart ice cream maker! It took less than 30 minutes for it to finish! We added about 1/2 cup of 2% milk to cut the sweetness down? It is FABULOUS! Since we don't have any Dairy Queen's here, we think it taste similar to McDonalds soft serve! Thanks so much!
