Method
Preparation
Make the Ice Cream Base
In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk together until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
Chill the Mixture
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
Churning
Churn the Ice Cream
Once the mixture is chilled, pour it into an ice cream maker. Churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Add Flavoring
During the last few minutes of churning, add your chosen flavoring (like chocolate syrup or fruit puree) and mix-ins (such as chocolate chips or nuts) to incorporate them evenly.
Freezing
Transfer to Container
Transfer the churned ice cream into a lidded container, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Freeze
Cover the container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
Serving
Scoop and Serve
Once the ice cream is firm, scoop into bowls or cones and serve. Enjoy your personalized Ice Cream Social Scoop with friends and family!
