👩🍳 Tip From Our Recipe Developers 👩🍳 Use full-fat ingredients! Stick with heavy cream and sweetened condensed milk — low-fat swaps won’t give you the rich, creamy texture this recipe is known for.
Best Peanut Butter To Use
🚫 Natural peanut butter can be too oily and affect the texture of your ice cream.
✅ It’s best to use commercial brands like JIF or Skippy.
✅ If you’re a fan of crunchy textures, you can use crunchy peanut butter instead.
How To Make This Skrewball Whiskey Ice Cream Recipe
Cold Ingredients
Start with very cold heavy cream. In addition, for best results, chill your bowl and beaters in the freezer for 30 minutes before whipping.
Stiff Peaks
Beat the whipping cream until stiff peaks form for a light, airy texture. If it’s not whipping, chill the bowl in the freezer for 5–10 minutes and try again.
Fold Gently
Gently fold in the whipped cream with a rubber spatula to keep it light and airy—don’t stir.
Follow Precise Measurements for Skrewball
Measure the Skrewball whiskey carefully—too much can stop the ice cream from setting properly. Stick to the recipe for the perfect texture.
Swirl But Don’t Mix
Dollop 5–6 spoonfuls of warm peanut butter on top, then quickly swirl it deep into the ice cream using a butter knife or skewer before it firms up.
How To Serve Skrewball Ice Cream
Serving Skrewball Whiskey Ice Cream is where the fun truly begins. This recipe is perfect for adult birthday parties or casual gatherings with friends.
Wherever you serve it, don’t forget to clearly mark your ice cream ‘Adults Only,’ as the alcohol-spiked ice cream isn’t suitable for children.
Classic Scoop: Serve scoops of ice cream in small bowls topped with a sprinkle of crushed peanuts or a drizzle of chocolate syrup for an extra touch. Or serve in waffle cones, just like when you were a kid.
Serve with Pie: Add a scoop of ice cream with whiskey on top of a slice of pie. Pecan pie or chocolate chip pie with whiskey ice cream will make the perfect sweet treats!

How To Store Homemade Whisky Ice Cream
Secure plastic wrap on top of the loaf pan, being careful not to disturb the swirl pattern — just cover it tightly with cling wrap and foil to avoid crystals from forming.
❄️ This ice cream recipe will keep happily in the freezer for up to two weeks.❄️
Because of the alcohol content in the Skrewball, this ice cream stays a little softer than usual — so it’s scoopable straight from the freezer (hallelujah 🙌). If it does firm up a bit too much, just let it sit on the counter for five minutes and it’ll be perfectly creamy again.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a stand mixer instead of a handheld mixer?
Yes, a stand mixer with a whisk attachment works well for whipping the cream.
Is there a non-alcoholic version of this recipe?
You can omit the whiskey, but the flavor will be different. You might want to add a bit more vanilla extract or a peanut butter flavoring to compensate.
Do I need an ice cream machine to make this recipe?
No, this recipe is designed to be made without an ice cream maker.
What do I use if I don’t have a loaf pan?
You can use one or two freezer-safe containers to make this ice cream. Using a loaf pan is convenient, but not crucial

Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 4 hours 10 minutes
Servings 8
Ingredients
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
- 3 tablespoons Skrewball peanut butter-flavored whiskey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream, very cold
- ½ cup creamy peanut butter
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, Skrewball peanut butter-flavored whiskey, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
- In a separate large mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, using a handheld mixer on medium-high speed, for 3-4 minutes or until you have stiff peaks. You will need to start the mixer on low and gradually work up to medium-high. This will help build air into the heavy whipping cream so that it does not spray out of the bowl when you first start beating the cream.
- Using a rubber spatula, gently fold ⅓ of the whipped cream into the bowl of sweetened condensed milk until incorporated. Add another ⅓ of the whipped cream to the bowl and fold that in until incorporated. Add the remaining ⅓ of the whipped cream into the bowl of sweetened condensed milk and fold the mixture together until all the whipped cream has been uniformly incorporated and no white streak or lumps of whipped cream remains in the ice cream mixture.
- Spread the Skrewball ice cream mixture into an even layer in a 4½ x 8½ loaf pan. Lightly cover the pan with a piece of plastic wrap and place it into the freezer for 1½-2 hours.
- Heat the creamy peanut butter in a small microwave-safe bowl for 30-40 seconds on high or until the peanut butter has a pourable consistency. Be sure to stir the peanut butter well to make sure no lumps remain.
- Remove the loaf pan with the Skrewball ice cream from the freezer and remove the piece of plastic wrap. Your ice cream should still be soft-set but firm enough that the pourable peanut butter does not sink to the bottom of the pan when added.
- Using a large spoon, dollop about 5-6 spoonfuls (about ⅔ of the peanut butter) of the soft peanut butter in different spots on the top of the ice cream. Swirl the peanut butter into the ice cream using a butter knife or large wooden skewer. You will want to work quickly so that the cold ice cream mixture doesn’t start to harden the peanut butter too quickly. Try to really get the peanut butter swirled into the entire pan of ice cream.
- With the remaining peanut butter, add dollops to the top of the ice cream again and gently swirl to create a decorative design on the top of the ice cream.
- Replace the piece of plastic wrap to the top of the loaf pan, being careful not to disturb the decorative swirl of peanut butter, and return the loaf pan to the freezer to finish freezing the Skrewball ice cream. This will take a minimum of 2-2½ hours up to overnight to freeze the ice cream to the desired consistency.
- Once your Skrewball ice cream has hardened, you can scoop it out into a bowl or ice cream cone to enjoy.
Notes
- To help keep your whipping cream very cold as you beat it, freeze your mixing bowl and beaters for 30 minutes before you begin.
- Be patient and ensure your whipping cream forms stiff peaks. This step is crucial for the texture of your ice cream.
- Fold gently to avoid deflating the whipped cream. Use a folding motion rather than stirring to maintain the airy texture.
