Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- 2 ripe bananas
- ½ cup peanuts
- ½ cup semi-chocolate chips
- ¼ cup rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
- Combine your heavy cream and vanilla in a large mixing bowl. Use an electric hand mixer to beat the cream into stiff peaks. Depending on the strength of your hand mixer, this should take 3-5 minutes.
- Once your cream begins to reach stiff peaks, add the bananas, peanuts, chocolate chips, and sprinkles. Use your mixer to mix the ingredients into the whipped cream until homogenous.
- Pour your ice cream mixture into a 9x5 inch loaf pan and then cover it with plastic wrap. Transfer your ice cream to the freezer and let it chill for 6 hours, or until it is completely set.
- Scoop your ice cream, serve, and enjoy!
Notes
- Storage directions: Store this ice cream in the freezer tightly covered for up to 2 months.
- Don’t overwhip the cream: If you overmix the heavy cream, it will separate and become lumpy — you want stiff peaks, not butter!
- Let it soften before serving: Allow the ice cream to sit on the counter for about 5 minutes to make it easier to scoop.
