Easy Freezer Ice Cream Recipes

EASY, SPECTACULAR FREEZER ICE CREAM - NO MACHINE NEEDED!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix condensed milk and fruit puree/flavorings thoroughly.
• In a separate bowl, beat chilled whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
• Fold whipping cream into condensed milk mixture, along with any stir-ins (like cookie pieces, fruit chunks, candy, etc.) that you desire.
• Pour into a plastic or metal container (not glass), cover, and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight. Scoop and enjoy!
• Makes about 1 1/2 pints (3 cups).
• Note on flavorings: Fruit puree or a strong fruit juice (even concentrate) works well, but be sure it's unsweetened or relatively sour or your ice cream will be too sweet. Lemon juice works great, as does margarita mix; top with crushed pretzels when serving for a salty-sweet treat. Or use brewed coffee or tea. If using tea, steep 3 teabags in 1/3 cup of hot water for about 5-7 minutes and press the water out of the teabags when removing them. I just made an excellent chamomile tea ice cream this way; it had a lovely, delicate flavor.
• Another note: I've heard you can substitue Cool Whip for the whipping cream--I'd go with about 1 1/2 to 2 cups--but as I haven't tried it myself, I can't vouch for the results. It would make it lower fat and easier to put together, but the texture might suffer.

EASY FREEZER ICE CREAM

Steps:

• 1. First you need to chill bowl and beaters a few minutes before you start. While doing that assemble your ingredients.
• 2. Using electric mixer beat heavy cream, condensed milk and vanilla in large bowl for 3-5 minutes until it forms thick stiff peaks.
• 3. Transfer to a freezer safe bowl,cover freeze until firm,at least 8 hours but 24 hours is best. Can be stored up to 2 weeks (if it lasts that long!)
• 4. For chocolate ice cream melt 8oz bittersweet chocolate in microwave for 30 secs..cool slightly add to heavy cream mixture..beat 3-5 minutes till stiff peaks form. I used chips for this easier melting..less time in microwave. Adjust chocolate to taste if too rich.
• 5. For fruit flavored ice cream you need 3/4lb fresh or frozen fruit purreed. (Makes about 1 cup) Add 1/2 the fruit while whipping the cream mixture and the other 1/2 cup dump on top while in bowl and use a knife to swirl it in.
