How to Make Cookies And Cream Ice Cream
Step 1. First, you need to crush the Oreo cookies. You do not want the cookies finely crushed so I would not use a food processor. Just place the Oreo Cookies in a large ziplock bag and seal tightly. Take a wooden spoon or rolling pin and crush the cookies.
Step 2. Next, get a large bowl and mix together the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract.
Step 3. Get out a separate bowl. Add the heavy whipping cream. Use a stand mixer or hand mixer to beat until it starts to form stiff peaks. It normally only takes 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 4. Next, add the whipped cream carefully to the sweetened condensed milk mixture. Be careful not to over-mix.
Step 5. Finally, add the crushed cookies by folding them in by hand.
Step 6. Transfer ice cream into a pan. I used a 9-inch loaf pan and it worked perfectly. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 6 hours but I prefer overnight. Serve with Ice Cream Sundae Toppings.
Storage
Store the ice cream inside a freezer-safe container. I like to also place a layer of wax paper directly on the ice cream to prevent ice crystals from forming.
The ice cream will keep up to a month.
Expert Tips
- Make this the day before you plan to eat it. This will allow plenty of time for it to reach the desired consistency.
- This cookies and cream ice cream will last up to 3 months stored in the freezer. We love it so ours is usually gone much quicker.
- Mixer – I really like my kitchen aid stand mixer but a hand mixer is great too for this ice cream recipe.
- Fold the cookies in by hand. It’s important to combine this step by hand and not with an electric mixer.
- Don’t substitute the sweetened condensed milk. Whole milk will not produce the same texture and consistency.
