Simple Vanilla Ice Milk

Recipe #373964 | 6¼ hours | 5 min prep | add private note

By: Ames Shaps

I've found that I often prefer a lighter ice cream without all the heavy cream and eggs. Here is a recipe I found for a simple ice milk that can be tweaked with variations (add your favorite fruit, nut, etc.) This originally had more sugar, but I found it too sweet, and now the sugar matches this similar recipe for "Tahitian Vanilla Ice Milk" on this site. Cooking time is freezing time.

SERVES 8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Combine milk, sugar, and vanilla in a medium bowl. Stir till sugar is dissolved.
  2. 2
    If using Ice Cream Machine: Add milk mixture to an ice cream machine and process 20 minutes or until mixture thickens. Pour into tupperware and freeze 8 hours or overnight. Consistency may improve by stirring every 4 hours or so until fully frozen.
  3. 3
    If not using Ice Cream Machine: Pour into shallow freezer-proof dish and put in freezer. Stir every 2-4 hours once crystals form. Follow above directions for freezing.

Wonderful Ice Milk Recipe. I had never made ice cream before and this turned out perfectly in my new Donvier maker. It only took 20 minutes with a prefrozen container. It was not runny at all. Thank you so much for sharing.

    When I first tasted the milk and sugar mixture, it was waaayy too sweet. I ended up having to add more milk, but the final frozen product was delish. I made it chocolate and it dissapeered within 3 days! Thanks for the recipe! I'll make igain for sure!!!

    I halved the recipe, kept the vanilla volume the same and used a bit less than half the sugar. Fantastic! I ate some instead of ice-cream and added some to a whiskey-coke. Awesome in both ways. I'm going to try it in some iced coffee, cocktails and milkshakes as well as attempt flavoured versions. Thanks for posting!

    I LOVED this recipe, because I could make it easily. I added an extra 1/2 cup of sugar and (of course) it came out too sweet, but then I added unsweetened cocoa powder and made some really great milkshakes. Thank you for putting directions for those w/out ice cream makers. GOOD JOB!!
