It's hard to beat a classic vanilla ice cream. Creating it from scratch makes it even better. In this recipe, light flavor combined with creamy texture makes a delectable treat, excellent by itself and an irresistible complement for other desserts!
Whisk together the heavy cream, milk, sugar, and vanilla bean paste, and place in the freezer for 30 minutes or refrigerator for an hour to pre-chill. This ensures a better freeze in the machine. Follow your ice cream freezer’s instruction manual. Personally, I use a KitchenAid attachment. With a standard countertop freezer, ice cream takes about 20-30 minutes.
Once frozen, place the ice cream in a loaf pan or sealed container and place it in the freezer for 3-4 hours for a good hard freeze. Countertop models produce a soft-serve consistency and it is best to let the ice cream freeze to a harder consistency.
