Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups (480 ml) heavy whipping cream, chilled
- 1 can (14 oz / 396 g) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- About 15 chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed into bite-sized chunks
Instructions
- Chill your mixing bowl and whisk attachment in the freezer for about 15 minutes before starting.
- Pour 2 cups (480 ml) of chilled heavy whipping cream into the cold bowl. Beat on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
- Gently pour in the entire 14 oz (396 g) can of sweetened condensed milk and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Fold them into the whipped cream carefully using a spatula without overmixing.
- Crush about 15 chocolate sandwich cookies into bite-sized chunks using a rolling pin or by hand.
- Fold the crushed cookies gently into the cream mixture to distribute evenly without deflating the mixture.
- Spoon the mixture into a freezer-safe container, smooth the top with a spatula, cover with a lid or plastic wrap, and freeze for at least 6 hours or preferably overnight.
- Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften slightly for perfect creamy spoonfuls.
Notes
Chill the bowl and beaters before whipping cream for best results. Fold ingredients gently to keep the mixture airy. Let ice cream soften for 5 minutes before scooping. To refresh cookie crunch, sprinkle crushed cookies on top before serving. For dairy-free, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream and use dairy-free condensed milk. Use gluten-free cookies for gluten-free version.
