Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 15 pieces Oreo cookies
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Whisk together until the sugar has completely dissolved.
Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This typically takes about 20-25 minutes.
While the ice cream churns, place the Oreo cookies in a resealable plastic bag and crush them into small chunks using a rolling pin or the bottom of a heavy glass. You can also chop them roughly with a knife if preferred.
Once the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency, gently fold in the crushed Oreo cookies using a spatula, ensuring that the cookie pieces are evenly distributed.
Transfer the ice cream to an airtight, freezer-safe container. Smooth the top with a spatula and place a piece of wax paper or plastic wrap directly on the surface to prevent ice crystals from forming.
Freeze the ice cream for at least 3-4 hours, or until firm.
Scoop and serve in bowls, cones, or with your favorite toppings. Enjoy your homemade cookies and cream ice cream!
