This process can easily become a new family tradition for the summer months. So, how to make ice cream at home? This, in fact, is not so difficult!
Making
ice cream at home has certain advantages. Firstly, in such a dessert there will be no chemistry and preservatives, because you yourself decide what to add there, and follow the entire cooking process. This means that even the smallest family members will be able to enjoy a frozen dessert without any fear.

There are complex recipes that require a certain level of culinary skill, but you can use the simplest ones - often they are not inferior to the tastes to taste. According to the easy recipe, before you make ice cream at home, it is enough to get only a mixer and a freezer. Of course, if you have a special device for making cold desserts (the so-called ice cream maker) everything will turn out even easier, but there will be very little space for creativity.
The essence of homemade ice cream is to thoroughly mix and whisk all the necessary ingredients, which will subsequently be frozen in the freezer. You can make homemade ice cream in the form of a large cake, or you can prepare portioned treats (both in muffin forms and in special forms with sticks, like in popsicle stores).
The taste of your dessert can be anything. Let it be an unusual pistachio or creme brulee. Or do you prefer fruit or milk? The boundaries are determined only by your taste preferences. After the ice cream has been prepared, you can prepare many additives to it. A crumb of cookies or grated chocolate, crushed nuts or even salted caramel (all together and each additive separately) - there are many options, as well as the tastes of the ice cream itself. It’s convenient to prepare additives separately from ice cream because the tastes of family members may not coincide, and having a free choice, everyone will be able to make just such a treat that he likes. If you mix everything in advance, you won’t be able to choose. Although it will still be delicious, there is no doubt about it.
Consider the simplest way to make ice cream at home. To do this, you need cream with a high percentage of fat content, condensed milk and
milk chocolate. Beat 600 milliliters of cream and 400 grams of condensed milk with a mixer. If you use milk or non-fat cream, the mass will not be beaten to the desired splendor, and the consistency will not be exactly as it should, so cream must be 33%. After that, melt the chocolate bar and add a little to the mixture. Mix thoroughly and send to the freezer - you can enjoy the cool after three hours.
