Ingredients

  • 2 14 ounces cans sweetened condensed milk
  • 5 1/3 cups Half and Half
  • 1 1/3 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsps vanilla
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, or preferably the container you will churn your ice cream in (that goes inside your ice cream freezer), add the sweetened condensed milk, half and half, sugar, vanilla and salt. Mix well.

  2. Refrigerate until ready to use or start the freezing/churning process with your ice cream freezer. (I make mine a few hours before or the morning of the day I will make the ice cream)

  3. When ready to churn, follow your machine's instructions. Mine uses ice and rock salt to freeze.

  4. Follow your instructions for churning time, as well. Mine takes about an hour and a half.

  5. Top ice cream with berries, hot fudge, caramel, other sundae toppings, whipping cream, sprinkles and nuts. Serve with cookies or brownies-whatever sounds yummy to you.

  6. Remember, homemade ice cream is softer than store purchased ice cream. You can place your ice cream in the freezer after it has churned, if you want it more set. Make it the day before you would like to serve it, if that works for you.
