Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 ½ cups M&Ms crushed
Instructions
- Using an electric hand mixer, beat the cream and vanilla together in a large mixing bowl. Beat the cream for about 3 minutes, or until it forms stiff peaks.
- Once your cream begins to form freestanding peaks, add the condensed milk and crushed M&Ms. Use a large spoon or spatula to fold the mixture together until homogenous.
- Transfer the ice cream mixture to a 9x5 inch loaf pan and cover it with plastic wrap. Freeze your ice cream for about 5 hours, or until it is firm in the middle.
- Give your ice cream a few minutes to soften on the counter before scooping. Enjoy!
Notes
- Ice too hard? Allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for a couple of minutes before serving to make it easier to scoop.
- Dairy-free. For a dairy-free version, use coconut cream and coconut condensed milk in place of the regular version. Try these Unreal Dark Chocolate Gems for a vegan alternative to M&Ms!
- Prevent bleeding. It's usual for the M&M's to bleed when mixed with the ice cream. To stop them from bleeding, freeze the candies for 20 minutes before mixing into the ice cream if you want to stop them from bleeding.
