Super Simple Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream

Step 1

✓ 1 (14 oz.) can Eagle Brand® Sweetened Condensed Milk ✓ 1/2 cup half-and-half ✓ 2 tablespoon vanilla extract ✓ 1/4 teaspoon salt ✓ 1 pint (2 cups) heavy cream

Step 2

✓ COMBINE sweetened condensed milk, half-and-half, vanilla and salt in large bowl. Beat with electric mixer on medium speed until blended. ✓ BEAT heavy cream in separate large bowl with same beaters until stiff peaks form. Add to sweetened condensed milk mixture, folding in until completely blended. ✓ POUR mixture into 9 x 5-inch loaf pan or other 2-quart freezer-safe container. Cover and freeze 6 hours or until firm. ✓ To customize basic vanilla ice cream, add one or more favorite stir-ins prior to freezing. Soft stir-ins such as ice cream topping or jam may be blended into the sweetened condensed milk mixture in step 1, or for a "ribbon" effect, may be swirled in by spooning between layers of the ice cream mixture prior to freezing. Hard stir-ins, such as nuts, chopped candy bars, baking chips and toasted coconut should be folded in with the whipped cream in step 2. Use a 2 1/2- to 3-quart freezer-safe container for storage.
