Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon bubblegum extract
- Food coloring (pink)
- 1/2 cup bubblegum pieces
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whip the 2 cups of heavy cream with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the 1 cup of sweetened condensed milk and 1 teaspoon of bubblegum extract until well combined.
- Add a few drops of pink food coloring to the sweetened condensed milk mixture and mix until the desired shade of pink is achieved.
- Fold the sweetened condensed milk mixture into the whipped heavy cream until no white streaks remain.
- Fold in the 1/2 cup of bubblegum pieces into the ice cream mixture until they are evenly distributed.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the mixture for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- After the mixture has chilled, scoop it into an airtight container and place it in the freezer to harden for at least 2 hours.
- Once the ice cream has hardened, scoop and serve immediately. Enjoy!
Tips
- Whip It Good: Make sure to whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form; this is crucial for achieving that light and fluffy texture in your ice cream. A stand mixer can make this process even easier!
- Customize Your Color: Don’t be afraid to experiment with the amount of food coloring. Add a few drops at a time until you reach your desired shade of pink—make it as vibrant or pastel as you like!
- Chill Time Matters: Allowing the mixture to chill for at least 15 minutes before freezing helps enhance the flavors. If you have the time, chilling it longer will yield even better results!
- Mix It Up: Feel free to add more bubblegum pieces or even mix in other fun candies like gummy bears or sprinkles for added texture and flavor.
- Storage Tips: When storing your ice cream, place a piece of parchment paper directly on the surface before sealing the container. This helps prevent ice crystals from forming and keeps your ice cream creamy.
- Serve with Style: For an extra fun presentation, serve your bubblegum ice cream in colorful cones or bowls, and top it off with whipped cream and more bubblegum pieces!
