Simple Ice Creams
Simple Vanilla Ice Cream
This ice cream can easily be dressed up by adding your
favorite chopped candies or sprinkles at the end of churning.
Makes about 5 cups (ten ½-cup servings)
1 cup whole milk
¾ cup granulated sugar
pinch salt
2 cups heavy cream
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract

  1. In a medium bowl, use a hand mixer on low speed or
    whisk to combine the milk, sugar and salt until the sugar
    is dissolved. Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla. Cover
    and refrigerate 1 to 2 hours, or overnight.
  2. Turn on the Cuisinart® ice cream maker; pour the mixture
    into the frozen freezer bowl and let mix until thickened,
    about 15 to 20 minutes. The ice cream will have a soft,
    creamy texture. If a firmer consistency is desired, transfer
    the ice cream to an airtight container and place in freezer
    for about 2 hours. Remove from freezer about 15 minutes
    before serving.
