You’ll need:

1 (14-ounce) can of sweetened condensed milk
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
Pinch of salt

2½ cups of chopped chocolate chip cookies, divided into 2 cups and ½ cup

Substitutions And Additions

How To Make This No-Churn Chips Ahoy Ice Cream Recipe

STEP ONE: Place a large mixing bowl and large loaf pan in the freezer 30 minutes prior to starting this recipe.

OUR RECIPE DEVELOPER SAYS

I used a 9×6-inch loaf pan for this recipe.

STEP TWO: In a separate large mixing bowl, stir together the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.

milk, salt, and vanilla stirred together

STEP THREE: Remove the first large bowl from the freezer and add the chilled heavy whipping cream. With a handheld electric mixer or stand mixer, beat the whipping cream until stiff peaks form, about 1 to 2 minutes, depending on the power of the mixer.

PRO TIP:

Be careful not to overmix the cream. Past the puffy and airy stage, the cream will turn to butter! There’s no fixing that, so go carefully.

STEP FOUR: Add the whipped cream one cup at a time to the sweetened condensed milk mixture, folding the whipped cream in gently after each addition until the mixture is smooth and no streaks remain.

PRO TIP:

Fold in by circling the bowl with the rubber spatula and then bring the spatula down the middle. Turn the bowl one-quarter turn and repeat until folded in.

STEP FIVE: Remove the loaf pan from the freezer and pour the mixture into the pan. Spread evenly with a rubber spatula. Place a piece of cling wrap flat on top of the mixture. Cover the pan with foil and place it into the freezer for two hours.

STEP SIX: After two hours, remove the pan from the freezer and gently fold in 2 cups of the chopped pieces of chocolate chip cookies, spread the ice cream smooth on the top again, and top with the remaining ½ cup of chopped cookies.

STEP SEVEN: Cover again with plastic wrap and foil and return to the freezer for an additional 3 hours or until set.

STEP EIGHT: Remove ice cream 5 minutes prior to serving to allow it to soften slightly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is no-churn ice cream?

Typically, when making ice cream from scratch, you will need to use an ice cream maker, and that usually entails the step of “churning” the ice cream. A no-churn recipe means no ice cream maker and, as you could guess, no churning. It saves many steps and makes it super easy to make homemade ice cream that is just as tasty as regular ice cream but doesn’t need special equipment.

Can I use nonfat milk in this ice cream recipe?

You can use any type of milk in this recipe but a lower fat milk such as skim milk will result in a less creamy ice cream than if you make it with whole milk or cream.

Could I use this ice cream recipe to make an ice cream cake?

This is a great idea, and although we haven’t tried it yet, I can’t see why you couldn’t use this ice cream as part of an easy ice cream cake.
