Ice Ice Baby

Blackberry, Honey & Vanilla Ice Cream

Guess who's back (back again)

So one of my New Years' Resolutions was to blog more...but I guess that ship sailed.
Buuuut I guess it's never too late to turn things around!

It's been such gorgeous weather over the past few days, so naturally I locked myself inside and made some ice cream. This was my first attempt at making ice cream, and I'm so chuffed with the turnout! It's super easy to make as this is a no-churn recipe (you can make it without an ice cream maker). I do have an ice cream maker, but no instructions to show my tiny brain how to use it which is kind of a set back.

Aaaaanywaaay! I'll cut the jabba and get right to it. This recipe makes one big tub of super creamy decadent blackberry, honey and vanilla ice cream.

Ingredients:

You will need...

• 1 tin/ one cup of condensed milk
• Two cups of heavy whipping cream
• Two punnets of blackberries
• 3/4 of a jar of honey
• A generous pinch of sea salt
• 1tbsp vanilla extract

Method: 

Firstly, pop the blackberries into a bowl and mash them up until the berries are totally squashed and resemble something straight out of Hannibal Lecter's kitchen. Noice.

Next, put the cream, condensed milk, honey, vanilla and salt into a large mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer until stiff peaks are formed. 

Once you've achieved this whipped perfection, fold the pummeled blackberries into the mixture, and voila!  

Pour the mixture into a large Tupperware container and leave to set in the freezer for at least five hours, or ideally overnight. 

This ice cream is so beautifully easy, and so crazy delicious!
