Vanilla Ice Cream without Ice Cream Maker

Hello hungry friends!

The summer is here and so is ice cream!! For this recipe you don’t need any machine, just your freezer!

Time:

Preparations 20-30 minutes

You will need:

2 1/4 cups whole milk, divided
5 teaspoons cornstarch
2 ounces cream cheese, very soft
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
1 cup heavy cream
2/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1) In your first small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch together with 1/4 cup of milk. Whisk real hard to make sure that the milk and cornstarch are combined.

2) In your second small bowl, whisk the cream cheese until smooth, then whisk in an additional 1/4 cup milk. Leave both aside for a while.

3) In a saucepan whisk together the remaining 1 3/4 cup milk, the heavy cream, sugar, and honey. Bring this mixture to a simmer over medium heat, whisking frequently. Reduce the heat and simmer for 4 minutes. Remove the hot milk from the heat.

4) Whisk about 1/2 cup of the hot milk into the cornstarch mixture. Slowly pour this back into the hot milk, whisking constantly. Return to the heat and cook, whisking frequently, until it comes to a boil. Boil for 1 minute then remove from the heat. Whisk in the thinned cream cheese. Whisk in the vanilla extract.

5) Pour the mixture into a bowl or a baking pan, whatever you prefer, and place into freezer for 45 minutes.

6) After 45 minutes the ice cream should be thicker and starting to be frozen. With spatula stir it real hard until you get a thickish creamy texture. Place in freezer for another 30 minutes. Repeat several times, each time after 30 minutes until you get the right texture.

7) Enjoy!!!
