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.

I am going to share how to make chocolate ice cream using the same method, so stay tuned! I also have my notebook filled with ideas for this ice cream, so they re going to hang around here, on CCS. 🙂
Just remember, if you want to make these, start a day ahead and make sure your milk is thoroughly chilled.

Hi Just wanted to check how long it lasts in the freezer, making it for Xmas day and going to put crushed candy canes it it, but wanted to make sure if ok to freeze for 4 days before eating ?
Thanks
CrunchyCreamySw says
It never lasted this long in our house so it's hard for me to say if it will be still good. Try three days and check on the ice cream every day. Give them a stir if needed. Hope this helps! Love the sound of candy cane ice cream!

Any way to make this with lactose free milk? Tired of paying a fortune for lactose free ice cream!
Monica says
I made it using 2% Evaporated milk, 1/4 c. powdered sugar, vanilla, and 3 packets of splenda to cut down on the sugar! A great diabetic treat!
joyfulmama says
Thank you for this delicious recipe! I've made this 3 times in the past 4 days 🙂 I made the vanilla, and then I made the vanilla and added crushed oreos and I also made the chocolate (I added my cocoa with a little of the milk, so it was still creamy). All delicious! Now I'm going to see if I can make mint chocolate chip from this vanilla base! Only I'll start doubling the recipe, my family of 6 goes through it too fast!

So I tried this with Bananas, Chocolate, Vanilla. I'm excited to see how my family likes it.
Emily says
Still in the freezer but already it looks (and tastes) fantastic. For my flavouring, I added a bit of matcha green tea powder, and it is phenomenal. Super easy, but very creamy and light. Definitely saving this recipe.

Really???..OK I will try to do that but with additional ingredients..thanks for sharing it!!!

I was wondering if Fat free evaporated milk works and if I sup the sugar for splenda or trivia? Thank you 🙂
Kelsey says
If you find a recipe for subbing the e milk to the dry milk equivalent, it seems to work fine so far! 🙂 Used it to make my brother Sea Salt Ice Cream from KH2
Kristin says
Made this yesterday and is almost all gone already:) So yummy!
CrunchyCreamySw says
Yay! Thank you for letting me know, Kristin!!

My Mother used to make this for our family way back in the 19sixties. We had four girls and Mum and Dad and we used to have it for special (or not so special) occasions at Sunday Lunch. I still can taste it now...it was so delicious. Growing up and living in Australia back then was, and still is, the best life a child could have. I salivate over the recipes my Mother, Grandma and Nanna used to make. Caramel Tarts, with proper pastry, Pineapple Flummery tart, and Heavenly Hash Pie were my favourites.

Is it just a 1/4 cup of powdered sugar or 1 and a 1/4 cup? just thought i'd check before i make it....thanks! Sounds amazing though!! 🙂
CrunchyCreamySw says
Not sure I know what you mean... The addition of water will make the ice cream have ice crystals and it would be harder after freezing. I would just add the cake mix itself. Let me know what you end up doing! Thanks, Megan!
Megan Osborn says
I just didn't know if I would need to add liquid to maintain the right consistency. I can't wait to try it, thanks!
CrunchyCreamySw says
I used brown sugar successfully so I would say go for it! Thanks, Anissa!

Trying this recipe right now, using 2% Lowfat Carnation brand, it's taking some time to whip up. Going to add vanilla extract and some vanilla beans.
