How to Make Homemade Classic Vanilla Ice Cream at Home 

Classic Vanilla Ice Cream 

There's nothing quite as delicious as a scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream—smooth, creamy, and full of deep vanilla flavor. The best part? You can make it yourself with only four easy ingredients and a little patience! Follow this simple step-by-step guide to make the perfect classic vanilla ice cream at home.

Ingredients You'll Need:

✅ 2 cups heavy cream

✅ 1 cup whole milk

✅ ½ cup granulated sugar

✅ 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1: Mix the Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Whisk together until combined. Stir until the sugar dissolves. It is necessary that this step be completed in order to prevent a grainy texture.

Step 2: Chill the Mixture

For the best taste and texture, cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours (or preferably overnight). This allows the flavors to blend beautifully and enhances the final taste.

Step 3: Churn the Ice Cream

Once the mixture is chilled, pour it into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This should take between 20 and 25 minutes, by which time the mixture will be thickened and will resemble soft-serve consistency.

Step 4: Freeze Until Firm

To achieve a scoopable, firmer texture, transfer the churned ice cream into an airtight container and freeze for 4-6 hours. This will provide it with the ideal consistency, which is easier to serve.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy! 

Scoop your home-baked vanilla ice cream into a cone or a bowl, place your preferred toppings (chocolate chips, caramel, or fresh fruit), and indulge in a yummy, creamy treat from scratch!

Having homemade traditional vanilla ice cream is simple and rewarding. Eaten alone or as the foundation for another dessert, this easy recipe guarantees a rich-flavored, creamy, and refreshing treat every time. Give it a try and let us know how it turned out for you!
