This no churn peppermint ice cream is the perfect holiday dessert. Minty, creamy, and best of all no ice cream maker needed!
What do you do when you can’t find your favorite peppermint ice cream in the grocery stores? You just make your own. Yep, it’s really that easy! We have an ice cream maker, but it’s been collecting dust after we discovered no churn ice cream! The only hard part is deciding what flavor to make. We’ve done cake batter, bubble gum, mint chocolate chip and today…peppermint. SO yummy. We added a bit too much peppermint the first time, so just trust me on the measurements. Otherwise, it may end up tasting more like peppermint extract than anything else. A whole lot of alcohol flavored aftertaste!
No Churn Peppermint Ice Cream
(scroll down for printable version)
2 c. heavy whipping cream
1 can sweetened condensed milk
6 drops red food coloring
3/4 tsp. peppermint extract
2/3 c. crushed peppermint candy
Beat whipping cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Fold in condensed milk, peppermint extract, food coloring.
Pour 1/3 of the ice cream mixture into a loaf pan. Sprinkle with 1/3 of the crushed candies. Add another layer of ice cream, then another layer of candy. Repeat once more.
Freeze 6-8 hours.
I like A LOT of peppermint candy crunch. If you think you’d like less, you can skip the middle layer of candy and just add one layer on the bottom and sprinkle a bit more on the very top.
