- 473 ml 35% heavy whipping cream 1 small carton
- 300 ml sweetened condensed milk 1 can
- 1 vanilla bean, seeds only or 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 20 Oreo cookies or your mix-in of choice
Chop the cookies into chunks or add them to a large freezer bag and crush with a mallet or rolling pin. Slice the vanilla bean lengthwise and use the back of a knife to scrape out all the seeds.
Add all ingredients except the cookies to the bucket of a large blender. Blend on medium speed for 30-60 seconds until it forms a soft whipped cream.
Use a spatula to gently stir in the cookies. Pour the ice cream into a loaf pan or freezer-safe container and cover with a lid or plastic wrap. Freeze overnight.
Allow to thaw for 10 minutes before scooping. Enjoy!
- Don't blend too long or your ice cream may turn into butter!
- Use your favourite mix-ins like chopped cookies, candies, chocolates, nut butters, etc.
- Can I make this gluten-free? Yes—use gluten-free Oreos.
- Can I make this dairy-free/vegan? The whipping cream and sweetened condensed milk are very important for the texture of this ice cream. I recommend searching for a specific vegan ice cream recipe.
- Store ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw for 10 minutes before scooping.
