1 ½cupschocolate chip cookies and/or double chocolate cookies, chopped
Instructions
Whisk together the condensed milk, vanilla extract and sea salt in a large bowl, set aside.
Whip the heavy cream with a stand mixer, or electric hand mixer, on medium-high speed until firm peaks form, about 3 minutes.
Fold the condensed milk mixture into the whipped cream with a rubber spatula until combined.
Mix in the chopped cookies.
Pour into a 2 quart container, preferably metal, as it will freeze the ice cream quicker.
Cover with plastic wrap and place in the freezer.
Freeze for at least 5 hours, or overnight.
Notes
Freezing the ice cream in a metal container will make it freeze faster. If you want your milk & cookies ice cream ASAP, pour the ice cream into a metal container to freeze.
Place the ice cream as far back in the freezer as you can for a quicker freeze. You never want to store ice cream in the door, as it is the warmest place in the freezer. But I have also found for homemade ice cream, the further back in the freezer you place it, the quicker it will freeze.
This recipe makes approximately 1/2 gallon of ice cream, which equals 4 pints, or 12 scoops of ice cream.
This ice cream will stay good in the freezer for 6 months. Always seal the ice cream in an airtight container to avoid freezer burn.
You can use just about any cookie you want in this recipe. Chocolate chip, peanut butter, Oreos, double chocolate chip, they’re all fair game!
