Easy Ice Cream Recipe: 4 Ingredients and Very Creamy, Yields Well

Start by pouring the heavy whipping cream into a chilled mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, whip the cream on medium-high speed until it reaches stiff peaks. This will take about 3 to 4 minutes. The whipped cream should hold its shape when you lift the beater.
In a separate large bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix until everything is well blended and smooth. This mixture gives the base its sweetness and creamy consistency.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture using a spatula. Work slowly and carefully so that you do not deflate the air from the whipped cream. Continue folding until both mixtures are completely combined and no streaks remain. Transfer the ice cream mixture into a loaf pan or freezer-safe container, spreading it evenly. Cover tightly with plastic wrap or a lid, then freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until firm. Once frozen, scoop and serve.
