No Churn Cranberry Ice Cream Food

BLACKBERRY CRUNCH NO-CHURN ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Place an 8-inch square pan in the freezer for 30 minutes. Combine the jam and blackberries in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the blackberries soften and the jam becomes liquidy, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Beat the cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla and salt in a large bowl with a hand-held mixer until smooth. Set aside. (Wash and dry the beaters.)
• Beat the heavy cream in a large bowl with the hand-held mixer until stiff peaks form. Fold the cream cheese mixture into the whipped cream.
• Spoon half of the mixture into the frozen pan. Set aside some of the cookies to sprinkle on top. Sprinkle the cream mixture with half of the remaining crushed cookies and fold gently to incorporate the cookies in the cream. Spoon half of the jam on top and swirl with a wooden skewer or chopstick. Repeat the process with the remaining cream, jam and cookies. Sprinkle the reserved cookies on top.
• Cover tightly with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, at least 6 hours but preferably overnight. To serve, let the ice cream stand at room temperature for about 5 minutes before scooping into serving bowls.

EASY CRANBERRY ICE CREAM (NO CHURN)

Steps:

• Crack and separate the egg. Put the white into a clean bowl and whisk using an electric whisk until it holds peaks. Whisk in a teaspoon of the sugar to stabilise it.
• Whip the cream to firm peaks. Do this after whisking the egg whites, so that there is no need to wash the whisk between the two tasks. You must whisk to firm peaks or the cream will collapse when you add the rest of the ingredients.
• Add the sugar, vanilla and egg yolk to the cream. Whisk again to soft peaks.
• Add the whisked egg whites to the cream. Use a spatula to fold in very gently, preserving the air in the egg.
• Transfer the mixture to an air-tight tub and add most of the cranberry sauce, reserving some to decorate. Gently fold to create a ripple effect through the ice cream.
• Top the ice cream with the reserved cranberry sauce. Seal the tub and freeze for at least six hours before serving.

NO-CHURN STRAWBERRY ICE CREAM

Steps:

• For the ice cream: Pulse the strawberries in a food processor until you achieve pea-size chunks. Add the condensed milk, vanilla and salt. Pulse to combine; remove to a medium bowl and set aside.
• Whip the cream with a mixer on medium-high speed until firm peaks form, about 2 minutes. Fold about 1 cup of the whipped cream into the strawberry mixture with a rubber spatula until combined, then fold the lightened mixture into the whipped cream until well blended. Pour into a chilled 9-by-5-by-3-inch metal loaf pan, and freeze, covered, until thick and creamy, like soft-serve, about 2 hours. Swirl in any desired mix-ins with a spoon. Continue to freeze, covered, until solid and scoopable, about 3 hours more.

NO-CHURN VANILLA ICE CREAM

Steps:

• For the ice cream: Whisk together the condensed milk, vanilla and salt in a large bowl; set aside.
• Whip the cream with a mixer on medium-high speed until firm peaks form, about 2 minutes. Fold about 1 cup of the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture with a rubber spatula until combined, then fold the lightened mixture into the whipped cream until well blended. Pour into a chilled 9-by-5-by-3-inch metal loaf pan, and freeze, covered, until thick and creamy, like soft-serve, about 2 hours. Swirl in any desired mix-ins with a spoon. Continue to freeze, covered, until solid and scoopable, about 3 hours more.
