Ingredients
Base Ingredients
- 1 can 14 oz / 414 ml sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup Kahlua (or 1 tablespoon Kahlua flavoring) Use real Kahlua for a richer flavor.
- 1/2 cup half-and-half
- 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
Instructions
Preparation
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, Kahlua flavoring, and half-and-half until the mixture is completely smooth.
- In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream with a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form, about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes.
- Gently fold the condensed milk mixture into the whipped cream until fully combined and smooth.
- Transfer the mixture to an 8 x 8-inch pan or a similar freezer-safe container, then spread it out evenly with a spatula.
- Freeze uncovered for 3 to 5 hours or overnight until the ice cream is firm.
Notes
For a mudslide-style variation, use 1/2 tablespoon Kahlua flavoring and 1/2 tablespoon Irish cream flavoring. Swirl in fudge or chocolate sauce before freezing.
