Expert Tips

Freeze bowl and beaters – Place the mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes before heavy cream. This will help whip it quicker. Using a cold mixing bowl will help your ice cream freeze better later.
Do not overmix – Be very careful to only mix the heavy whipping cream and sweetened condensed milk until just combined.
Add Cereal Topping – You can also save additional cups of cereal pieces or crushed cereal to top the ice cream with when serving. It is so delicious and kids love adding this toping.
Remove soaked Cereal – Make sure to remove all of the cereal from the cream after it has soaked. You can use a fine mesh strainer to help strain the milk if needed. All of the flavor is in the whipping cream now from being soaked with cereal.
Use Fresh, Good Ingredients – Start with really good ingredients. Since the ice cream requires so few ingredients, it is important to use the best. You want to use good quality items such as real vanilla extract. The ice cream will taste noticeably better using quality ingredients.
Use Shallow Container – Keep your ice cream soft once frozen by using a shallow container. Homemade ice cream can often become hard and icy. This can be prevented by using a shallow container instead of a deep one.
No Heating of Ingredients – We love that this recipe doesn’t require room temperature ingredients. Plus we do not have to head ingredients over medium heat. Just gather ingredients and start mixing.
Storing Leftovers – If you have leftovers, store in a freezer safe container up to 3 months in the freezer. Ours never lasts that long since we eat it pretty fast.
Mixer – We used a stand mixer but you can use a hand mixer as well.

What if my no churn ice cream is icy?

This happens when the ice cream is left in the freezer to long. Make sure to only leave in the freezer for up to 8 hours before serving. This will prevent it from being icy.

Also, make sure that you cover it properly to make sure no air gets into the ice cream.

How to Serve Cinnamon Toast Crunch Ice Cream:

We love to serve this ice cream in fun bowls, on a cone or a waffle bowl. This is the perfect ice cream to serve at a kids birthday party. We love to set out different toppings and you can even top with whipped cream.

How long will Homemade Ice Cream last in the Freezer:

The ice cream will keep covered in the freezer for up to 1 month. Make sure the ice cream is well covered.

I also like to place a piece of wax paper directly on the ice cream. This helps to prevent ice crystals from forming and keeps the ice cream fresh. You can then place the regular cover on top of the container.

This double method seems to work great and results in really fresh ice cream every time.
