Description

This No Churn Moose Tracks Ice Cream is a rich and creamy homemade treat that combines sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, and a pinch of sea salt with whipped heavy cream. Mixed with chopped peanut butter cups and swirls of hot fudge, it’s the perfect indulgent ice cream without the need for an ice cream maker. Simply whip, fold, freeze, and enjoy a luscious dessert that’s easy to make and delightfully satisfying.


Ingredients

Ice Cream Base

  • 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 cups heavy cream (cold)

Mix-ins

  • 1 cup chopped peanut butter cups
  • ¼ cup hot fudge


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Base: In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and sea salt until well combined. Set this mixture aside for now.
  2. Whip the Cream: Using a stand mixer or electric hand mixer on medium-high speed, whip the cold heavy cream until firm peaks form. This should take approximately 3 to 4 minutes.
  3. Combine Mixtures: Gently fold the condensed milk mixture into the whipped cream with a rubber spatula, keeping the texture light and airy by mixing until just combined.
  4. Heat the Hot Fudge: Warm the hot fudge in the microwave for about 30 seconds to make it easy to fold in.
  5. Add Mix-ins: Carefully fold the chopped peanut butter cups and the warmed hot fudge into the ice cream base mixture, distributing them evenly without overmixing.
  6. Freeze the Ice Cream: Pour the combined mixture into a 2-quart container, preferably metal, as it helps freeze the ice cream faster.
  7. Cover and Freeze: Cover the container tightly with plastic wrap to prevent ice crystals and place it in the freezer.
  8. Freeze Time: Allow the ice cream to freeze for at least 5 hours or preferably overnight until firm and scoopable.

Notes

  • Using a metal container helps the ice cream freeze more quickly for a better texture.
  • Be sure not to overmix when folding to maintain the airy texture of the whipped cream.
  • Feel free to substitute peanut butter cups with other mix-ins such as chocolate chips or nuts.
  • This recipe does not require an ice cream maker, making it an easy option for homemade ice cream.
  • For best results, chill your mixing bowl and beaters before whipping the cream.
