Homemade Cookie Monster Ice Cream

Summer is here!! What better way to celebrate the warm weather than with a delicious Homemade Cookie Monster Ice Cream.

Homemade Cookie Monster Ice Cream

This no churn homemade creamy ice cream is easy to prepare, and only requires six ingredients.

First, in a stand mixer pour two cups of cold whipping cream and whip on high speed for about ten minutes.

You want to achieve stiff peaks here.

Next, pour the condensed milk, vanilla extract, and blue food coloring. Fold the ingredients in using a spatula.

Be careful here – you don’t want to over mix and deflate your whipping cream.

Before adding the Oreo cookies and chocolate chip cookies,  crush them in a large Ziploc bag then add the cookies to the ice cream mix.

Finally, pour the ice cream mix into a loaf pan or a cake pan, smooth the top, cover with saran wrap and freeze for about four- five hours or overnight.

What Does Lactose Free Mean?

First and foremost, I try my best to incorporate lactose free ingredients in all my recipes. These ingredients can include, butter, milk, cream cheese etc. With that being said, sometimes it is hard to make an entire recipe using ALL lactose free ingredients. For example, my ice cream recipes include, condensed milk- NOT LACTOSE FREE.

Contrary to what some may believe, lactose – free is not the same as dairy free. Lactose – free still contains milk, however, there is a certain component, I believe a type of sugar (I may be wrong) where the lactose is removed from dairy, making it lactose – free. Dairy free on the other hand, contains ZERO milk. Alternatives for dairy free are almond milk, oat milk, soy milk etc. You can learn more about the differences here.

Which Ingredients Are Lactose Free?

• Whipping cream – I used Natrel lactose – free whipping cream.

Frequently Asked Questions?

What can I use instead of a stand mixer?

An electric handheld mixer works just as well. Using a whisk and mixing with your hand works as well, but will require a lot of fast mixing.

Can I use different types of cookies?

While chocolate chips cookies and Oreo cookies are traditional for cookie monster ice cream, you can 100% use any type of cookies. Peanut butter cookies go great with this homemade ice cream.

Do I need to use lactose – free whipping cream?

Absolutely not! Using lactose free ingredients is a personal preference. You can use whatever works for you -Greek yogurt is a great substitute.

What if my ice cream is hard to scoop?

If the ice cream is hard to scoop, allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for about five – ten minutes before scooping. You can also run the ice cream scoop in hot water before scooping.
