Vanilla ice cream without an ice cream machine

I finally worked out a simple way to make creamy vanilla ice cream without an ice cream machine. The trick is sweetened condensed milk. The sugar content prevents the formation of ice crystals.

Ingredients:

 One  395gm can of sweetened condensed milk. I used the light version.

300 gm cream suitable for whipping.

1 teaspoon vanilla essence.

method: 

Add the vanilla to the cream and whip it to soft peaks. (I just plused the cream in my Ninja blender)
Continue to whip while adding the condensed milk.

Place in the freezer over night and in the morning you should have some creamy vanilla ice cream.

Ninjas and Ice Cream

Received my Ninja blender the other day and the first thing I made was some ice cream.  I just followed the recipe shown on those TV commercials for the Ninja:

1 packet frozen berries. (I used raspberries)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup cream

method:

Put everything in the blender and blend. The result is delicious creamy raspberry ice cream.
