Cookies and cream ice cream

Cookies and Cream Ice Cream (No Churn)


  • Author: Ethan

Description

Cookies and cream ice cream (no churn) is the ultimate 3-ingredient dessert that delivers rich, creamy texture and loads of Oreo cookie crunch—no machine needed! Perfect for hot days, birthdays, or anytime a sweet, simple treat is in order. This is one of those recipes that feels like magic in a bowl.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 14 Oreo cookies, roughly crushed

  • 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk

  • 2 cups heavy cream, cold


Instructions

  • Crush the Oreos:
    Roughly crush the cookies into bite-sized pieces. Don’t overdo it—you want chunks, not crumbs! Set a tablespoon aside if you’d like to sprinkle some on top later.

  • Whip the cream:
    In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form. This takes about 3–5 minutes.

  • Fold in condensed milk:
    Gently fold the sweetened condensed milk into the whipped cream using a spatula. Work slowly to keep the mixture light and fluffy.

  • Add the cookies:
    Fold in the crushed Oreos until evenly combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  • Freeze:
    Transfer the mixture to a loaf pan or freezer-safe container. Smooth the top and sprinkle with reserved cookie pieces if desired.

 

  • Chill:
    Cover and freeze for at least 6 hours, or overnight, until firm and scoopable.

Notes

  • Use very cold heavy cream for best whipping results.

  • Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before scooping.

  • Want to get creative? Swirl in peanut butter, chocolate chips, or chopped peanut butter cups for a twist.

  • Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks—press plastic wrap directly onto the surface to minimize ice crystals.
