No-Churn Cookie Dough Ice Cream
Okay, we are going to discuss a very important topic in today’s post. Cookie Dough Ice Cream. I mean, is there even anything more important in life than cookie dough? Cookie dough ice cream is most definitely my favorite ice cream flavor.
The biggest problem with so many different cookie dough ice creams out there though is the complete lack of cookie dough in the ice cream. There is nothing worse than buying cookie dough ice cream and having to dig for cookie dough as if you’re digging for fossils. WHERE IS THE COOKIE DOUGH?!!
I’ve been wanting to make my own cookie dough ice cream for a long time. But, then my ice cream maker attachment bowl sprung a leak and I’ve been too cheap and lazy to buy a new one, but guess what? You don’t need an ice cream maker to make this ice cream! The base is so incredible simple: heavy whipping cream and sweetened condensed milk. Seriously, that’s it, well, and a touch of vanilla.
Let’s talk about this ice cream though – you guys, its LOADED with cookie dough pieces in every single bite. No more digging around for cookie dough here.
It may seem like there’s a lot of steps here, but I promise you this ice cream is really very easy.
One thing to note about the cookie dough itself – While there are no eggs in the recipe, if you are worried about any risks associated with eating raw flour, you will see I’ve included the instructions on how to heat the flour in the oven before preparing the dough. If you aren’t super concerned about this, feel free to skip this step!
This is exactly how cookie dough ice cream should be. If you are a cookie dough ice cream lover, this ice cream will make all of your cookie dough dreams come true!
