Ingredients:
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp fine sea salt
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream and whole milk.
- Whisk in the granulated sugar and fine sea salt until the sugar grains are completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Optional: Refrigerate the mixture for 1-2 hours to ensure the base is cold for smaller ice crystals.
- Ensure the ice cream maker bowl has been frozen for at least 24 hours.
- Turn on the machine and slowly pour the cream mixture into the canister.
- Churn for 20–30 minutes until it reaches a thick, glossy, soft-serve consistency.
- Scrape the ice cream into an airtight freezer container using a rubber spatula.
- Press parchment paper or plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the ice cream to prevent air pockets and seal with a lid.
- Freeze for at least 4 hours until firm enough to scoop.
