A quick and easy homemade cookies and cream ice cream made without an ice cream maker, ready in just five minutes of prep and perfect for last-minute dessert cravings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups (360 ml) heavy cream
  • 1 can (14 oz / 396 g) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 15–20 chocolate sandwich cookies (e.g., Oreos)
  • Pinch of salt (optional)
  • Mini chocolate chips or chunks (optional)

Instructions

  1. Chill your mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for about 10 minutes.
  2. Pour cold heavy cream into the chilled bowl and beat on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt if using. Stir gently.
  4. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture using a spatula, keeping the mixture light and airy.
  5. Roughly crush the chocolate sandwich cookies into chunks or finer pieces depending on texture preference.
  6. Gently fold the crushed cookies into the ice cream base, distributing evenly without deflating the mixture.
  7. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and smooth the top with a spatula. Cover tightly.
  8. Freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results. No stirring needed during freezing.
  9. When ready to serve, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 3-5 minutes to soften slightly before scooping.

Notes

Chill your mixing bowl and beaters before whipping cream for better volume. Fold ingredients gently to keep the mixture airy. Crushing cookies unevenly provides the best texture with a mix of crunchy chunks and fine crumbs. The ice cream can be served soft immediately after mixing or frozen for a firmer texture. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
