For the Ice Cream Base:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
- 1/4 cup sugar (optional, adjust based on sweetness preference)
Toppings (Optional):
- Fresh fruits (like strawberries, bananas, or mango)
- Chocolate chips or shaved chocolate
- Crushed cookies (like Oreos or graham crackers)
- Nuts (like almonds or cashews)
- Candy pieces (like M&Ms or chocolate chunks)
- Sauces (like chocolate, caramel, or fruit syrup)
Prepare the Ice Cream Base:
In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and sugar (if using).
Whisk until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
Adjust the sweetness to your taste by adding more sugar or condensed milk if desired.
Chill the Base:
Pour the ice cream mixture into a shallow dish or baking tray.
Place the dish in the freezer for 1-2 hours until the base is chilled but not frozen solid.
Set Up the Cold Surface:
If you have an ice cream roll machine, pre-chill the plate according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Alternatively, you can use a metal baking tray and place it in the freezer for about 30 minutes to get it as cold as possible.
Pour the Ice Cream Base:
Once the ice cream base is chilled and the surface is ready, pour a thin layer of the ice cream mixture onto the cold surface.
Use a spatula to spread it evenly and cover the surface.
Add Toppings:
Quickly add your desired mix-ins (fruits, chocolate chips, crushed cookies, etc.) to the mixture while it’s still cold.
Scrape and Roll:
After a couple of minutes, once the mixture starts to freeze, use a spatula or scraper to gently scrape the ice cream from the surface into rolls.
Work from one end of the tray to the other, rolling it up into neat cylindrical shapes.
Serve:
Carefully place the rolled ice cream into serving cups.
Add extra toppings or sauces on top as desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
