Eggless Vanilla Ice Cream

This delicious, creamy and smooth Eggless Vanilla Ice Cream is so quick and easy to make. This ice cream  is a no churn and you do not need of an ice cream machine or ice to make it. In summer ice creams are in great demand. Make this smooth ice cream ...  enjoy... a treat for kids and adults too.

Ingredients

500 Ml Full Cream Milk
4 Tablespoons Level Granulated Sugar
1 Tablespoon Corn flour
2 Tablespoons Heaped Milk powder
1 Teaspoon Vanilla essence
300 ML Whipping Cream

Method

Reserve 1/4 cup of milk and keep  the rest in a heavy bottomed pan on low flame to boil.

Dissolve the cornflour in the reserved cup of milk to smooth slurry and keep aside.

Stir the  milk continuously to prevent it from burning.
Once it reaches near boiling point,  take  4 tablespoons hot milk and mix it with the milk powder and make a smooth paste. 

Now add the sugar and stir till the sugar melts and the milk comes to a boil, add the milk powder paste and stir with a whisk,  to mix well, keep stirring for a 3 minutes.

Again stir the cornflour slurry to mix it well and  then add this to boiling milk and whisk continuously till it thickens and coats the spoon. Take it off the flame, add the essence and cool it, then chill it well for a good 2 hours in the freezer.

Beat cream with a hand blender till it forms soft peaks - about 3 to 5 minutes.

Once  the milk is chilled, beat it well with a hand blender till it light and smooth.

Now fold in the whipped milk and cream gently until it's well blended - about 4 - 5 minutes.

It should double in volume (see above pic)

Keep the ice cream in the freezer in a airtight container for 3 - 4 hours. Take out and give it a good churn for about 3 to 5 minutes.

Return to the freezer and  and keep it for 8  hours and again remove and beat it till it's light and fluffy (this fills the ice cream with air which  makes it light,  fluffy, creamy and smooth.)

After the final churn, transfer it to a closed  air tight container and freeze it for 12 or more hours depending on the temperature of your freezer.  This time I set it in a flat air tight container, since it will freeze faster.

Serve it and enjoy ..

My Notes 

Freeze ice cream in air tight containers which are flat  and not tall in  height, as this will freeze it faster which will prevent ice crystal formation.
