Ingredients:

• 2 cups heavy cream
• 1 cup whole milk
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt

1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, pure vanilla extract, and a
   pinch of salt until the sugar is completely dissolved.
2. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This typically
   takes about 20-25 minutes, or until the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency.

   cream during the last few minutes of churning.
4. Transfer the churned ice cream into an airtight container and freeze for at least 2-4 hours, or until it’s firm
   and scoopable.
5. Serve your homemade ice cream in bowls or cones, and enjoy!

toppings. Whether you love classic vanilla or want to get creative with add-ins, homemade ice cream is always a
crowd-pleaser.
