  4. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and freeze for 6 hours or overnight until set.  
  5.  When ready to serve, take it out of the freezer and let it thaw for 5-10 minutes. Scoop the ice cream into cones or dishes and enjoy! 

Customize with Add-Ins and Flavorings

No-churn ice cream is easy to customize with a variety of add-ins and flavorings. Here are some ideas to get you started: 

  • Chocolate chips or chunks 
  • Fresh fruits, such as strawberries or raspberries 
  • Crushed candy bars 
  • Caramel sauce or chocolate sauce 
  • Cookie crumbs (such as Oreos)
