Homemade ice cream without an ice cream maker is super easy with my no-churn, 2 ingredient ice cream base recipe. You’ll whip heavy cream to stiff peaks and combine it with sweetened condensed milk for a light, creamy texture that rivals store-bought ice cream.

This no-churn ice cream recipe features the addition of chopped Oreo cookies to make a homemade Oreo Cookie Ice Cream!

What’s the difference between Oreo Ice Cream and Cookies and Cream Ice Cream?

Oreo Ice Cream and Cookies and Cream Ice Cream are simply two names for the same thing – ice cream with chopped oreo cookies in it.

Ingredients

See the recipe card for exact amounts.

  • Whipping cream: I use 35% fat whipping cream. You need the fat to help it whip!
  • Sweetened condensed milk: You’ll need a 14 oz can (which yields 10 oz of sweetened condensed milk.) This is found in the baking aisle, near the evaporated milk. They are not the same thing though so make sure to get sweetened condensed milk. Eagle is a popular brand.
  • Oreo cookies: I use 15 cookies for this recipe, you can add more or less.
  • Vanilla extract: You can skip this if you don’t keep it in the house and don’t want to buy it just for this ice cream recipe but it does add a nice vanilla flavor to the ice cream.

Substitutions

  • Cookies: Try different flavors of Oreo Cookies, like Peanut Butter or Mint flavors.

Instructions

Prep Tips

  • The ice cream will need to freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  • You’ll need a loaf pan or something similar and plastic wrap for freezing the ice cream.

The ice cream itself takes less than 10 minutes to prepare and the rest of the time is simply waiting for it to freeze.

Whipping cream in a bowl with vanilla extract.

Whip the cream to stiff peaks. This takes a few minutes with an electric beater. You can also use a whisk, it just takes longer to whip cream by hand.

The cream is at stiff peaks when the point on top of the cream stands straight up and doesn’t bend over. This is the perfect texture for no-churn ice cream.

Chopping oreo cookies.

Roughly chop the oreo cookies. This gives a nice balance of crumbs and chunks in the ice cream.

Folding cookies into whipped cream.

Carefully fold the cookies and sweetened condensed milk in. You don’t want to knock out all of the air that you just whipped into it. Just go slow and don’t stress.

Add the ice cream to a loaf pan. Press plastic wrap into the surface of the ice cream to help prevent ice crystals and freeze the ice cream for 6 hours or overnight.

Let the frozen ice cream sit on the counter for 10 minutes before serving to make scooping easier.

Tips for making

  • stiff peaks: whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks so your ice cream will have a light and creamy texture.
  • ice crystals: ice crystals will form on top of the ice cream while it’s freezing. To help prevent them press plastic wrap into the top of the ice cream. Some ice crystals will still form but you can brush them away with a pastry brush.
  • soft ice cream: Freeze the ice cream for 6 hours for a soft-serve type consistency.
  • hard ice cream: Freeze the ice cream overnight for more of a hard ice cream consistency. This is my preference.

Notes

Stiff peaks: Cream is whipped to stiff peaks when you can hold a dollop up and the point stays standing up and doesn’t bend over. If it bends over this is at soft peaks. You need stiff peaks for no-churn ice cream.
You can whisk the cream by hand using a whisk it just takes longer.
Freeze for 6 hours for a soft-serve consistency.
Freeze overnight for a hard ice cream consistency.  This is my preference.
Try a different Oreo flavor to switch things up.
