Who doesn’t like ice cream? This is super easy and very tasty. You can use whatever smashed fruit you want. It’s a smooth and creamy, no-churn vanilla ice cream swirled with smashed blackberries. No cooking and no ice cream maker needed! Now, give it a try!

INGREDIENTS:

(1) 14-oz can sweetened condensed milk

2 tsP pure vanilla extract

2 cups cold heavy cream

8-10 oz fresh blackberries

2 tbsp granulated sugar

DIRECTIONS:

In a large bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract. Set aside.

Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, whip the heavy cream until stiff, billowy peaks form. Gently fold half the whipped cream into the condensed milk, then add the other half.

In a separate bowl, use a fork or potato masher to mash the blackberries and granulated sugar.

Pour half the ice cream base into a 2 quart container (I used a loaf pan). Top with half the smashed blackberries and use a knife to swirl the blackberries into the ice cream. Pour in the remaining half of the ice cream base and top with remaining smashed blackberries. Swirl the remaining blackberries into the ice cream.

Cover and freeze until firm 15-20 hours.

Note: I found once you scoop some in a bowl, let it sit 5 minutes or so before eating. It’s really creamy and tasty yum.
