Summer is in full swing.
Here in California that often means H.O.T.
As much as I enjoy being in the kitchen, I LOVE days when the oven never gets turned on.
One of the easiest summer treats {even the kids can do this one} is ice cream.
You don’t even need an ice cream maker. The base is very simple.
Easiest Ice Cream Ever recipe:
- 2 cup of heavy cream
- 1 can of sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla
Instructions:
- whip the cream until you have firm peaks
- gently fold in the sweetened condensed milk and the vanilla
That’s all there is to it!
Now….the fun part.
You can add anything you want
m&m’s,
snickers,
crushed cookies,
or cookie dough.
Our favorite is to add 1/2 cup of peanut butter and 1/2 cup of chopped peanut butter cups to the base. Just freeze for at least 4-6 hours.
Scoop and enjoy!

This looks like a lot of fun! Deciding on the things to add in might be hard. There are so many great ingredients to add in.
Wow! this looks amazingly easy – and yum. Def on my to do list (even thought the weather isn’t hot here!)
Yummy! This sounds good. Thanks for sharing at the Sunday Showcase!
This looks delicious. I’ll have to try making it with my 4 & 6 yr old boys. Thanks for sharing.
