Homemade vanilla ice cream is delicious and Its preparation doesn’t require an ice cream maker. This dessert is usually ready in a short space of time, as it needs only about 6 hours to freeze.Homemade ice cream is cost-effective and creates an opportunity for family members to bond in the kitchen. Below are the ingredients you need to make Vanilla Ice cream at home:

• 2 eggs
• Sugar (about 1/4 cup
•  Double Cream (about 1 1/4 cup)
• 1-2 teaspoons of Vanilla Extract

Directions

1. Beat the egg white

You will need to separate your eggs for this step. Crack the egg and pour over your hand, let the egg white slip between your fingers until just the yolk is left in your hand. Keep the egg yolks in a smaller bowl as you will need them later.

Beat the egg whites until they form peaks and are quite stiff, then add the sugar, a spoonful at a time.  The mixture should look quite glossy/shiny and stiff when finished.

Step 2. Whip the Cream

Pour the double cream into another bowl and whisk using a hand mixer. You can also use an electric mixer to combine if you have one. You don’t want this to be too stiff so don’t overdo it.

Step 3. Egg Yolks & Vanilla

In the small bowl where you put your egg yolks from before, add 1-2 teaspoons of vanilla extract depending on how you like it to be flavoured. At this stage, you can add a fruit syrup to flavour it or add chocolate chips, etc. Beat the egg yolks and vanilla together.

Step 4. Combine everything

Add the cream to the whisked egg whites and gently combine. Once this is nearly fully combined, slowly add the egg yolk mixture and continue to fold this in.

Step 5. Pour Into a Tub

Pour your mixture into a freezer-proof tub and put it in the freezer for at least 6 hours. If you want ice cream quickly then use a large tub and spread the mixture out thinly. After 6 hours or so your ice cream should be ready. It should taste really creamy and easily scooped.

So instead of thinking of the next ice cream shop to visit over this weekend, why not have your friends come over to your place while you bond in the kitchen making vanilla ice cream.
