What is Red Velvet Ice Cream made of?
If you love Red Velvet Cake then you will love this simple ingredient ice cream. The ice cream is made with heavy whipping cream and vanilla. Then sweetened condensed milk added to make it creamy.
Once you have made your red velvet cupcake, then crumble pieces into the cream mixture. To add flavor to the cream mixture, drop tablespoons of cream cheese. We love the extra flavor it gives and no ice cream makers are needed.
No egg yolks are needed so you don’t have cook the ingredients over medium heat.
Ingredients:
- Heavy Whipping Cream, chilled
- Sweetened Condensed Milk
- Vanilla Extract
- Red Velvet Cupcake (pre-made or homemade)
- Cream Cheese (Optional)
How to Make Red Velvet Ice Cream:
- Mixed together whipping cream and vanilla – With a stand up mixer or hand held mixer, beat together the heavy cream and the vanilla extract until the cream is whipped and can form soft peaks.
- Then stir in condensed milk – Then gently stir the sweetened condensed milk into the whipped cream in a large bowl.
- Add in Red Velvet Cupcake – Crumble the red velvet cupcake and gently stir the cake crumbs into the mixture. Be careful not to over mix.
- Add cream mixture to pan – Spread the mixture into a loaf pan.
- Drop Cream Cheese into Mixture – Drop the cream cheese by the tablespoons into the mixture in the pan. Make sure that they are completely covered and gently swirl them into the mixture with a butter knife.
- Freeze Ice Cream – Cover and freeze for at least 4 hours until firm.
- Serve and enjoy – The ice cream will keep covered in the freezer for up to 1 month.
Red Velvet Ice Cream Tips:
- Freeze Bowl and Beaters – I place my mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for 10-15 minutes before whipping the cream to help whip it quicker.
- Pre-Made Cupcake – You can easily use a pre-made red velvet cupcake topped with cream cheese frosting. Remove the frosting and crumble up the cupcake and then you can drop the cream cheese frosting into the ice cream instead of the cream cheese in this recipe.
- It is best to use full fat brick style cream cheese. I do not recommend using whipped, containers of cream cheese or reduced fat.
- Do not overmix the ingredients. Also, be careful to fold in the cupcake pieces into the ice cream base.
- Sweetened condensed milk gives the ice cream base its sweetness. Do not substitute it because it will change the texture of the ice cream.
- Add Red Food Coloring – If you like a darker red color of ice cream, add in some drops of red food coloring.
- Add More Red Velvet Cake – If you prefer more red velvet cake, mix in more crumbled cake to the ice cream mixture. You can even add in cocoa powder for a chocolate flavor.
How to Store Homemade Ice Cream:
Store inside an airtight container in the freezer. To ensure freshness, you might also want to put a piece of wax paper directly on top of the ice cream. Then place the lid on top.
This extra step will help to prevent ice crystals from forming on top. If you do not have a container with lid, you can freeze in the loaf pan. Just cover tightly with plastic wrap.
How long will Homemade Ice Cream last:
This homemade ice cream doesn’t last long in my house. But if stored properly, this ice cream will last about 1 month if covered. Wrap loaf pan with plastic wrap and then foil.
We do recommend serving this ice cream within about 2 weeks of making it. Ice crystals could form on the the ice cream and change the texture.
