To make a red velvet ice cream all you need are some red velvet cookies. I used OREO red velvet cookies. If you can't find them you can substitute any brand red velvet sandwich cookie.
Ingredients
- 10 oz package OREO Red Velvet Cookies, divided
- 2 cups cold heavy whipping cream
- 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
- 12 drops AmeriColor Maroon food coloring paste
Directions
Step 1: Crush 12 red velvet sandwich cookies in a ziplock bag and set aside.
Step 2: Beat the whipping cream, vanilla and food coloring until stiff peaks form.
Step 3: Beat in the condensed milk until combined well. Make adjustments to the food coloring at this point if desired.
Step 4: Fold the crushed cookies in.
Step 5: Transfer to a 9 inch bread pan or a plastic bowl with a tight fitting lid. Freeze over night or until solid. Garnish with more crushed cookies before serving.
Recipe FAQs
No churn ice cream means you are making a quick version of homemade ice cream without an ice cream maker and using whipping cream and sweetened condensed milk instead of making an egg based ice cream custard and churning it in a ice cream maker.
If you are craving homemade ice cream but do not have an ice cream maker you can make no churn ice cream that is a quick and easy substitute for homemade ice cream. It tastes sweet and creamy just like real ice cream but is made with whipping cream and condensed milk.
