This is probably the easiest to make and best tasting home-made Ice-Cream around.
Ingredients:
1 x Tin COLD evaporated milk (420g tin)
1 x Tin COLD Dairy Cream (420g tin)
1 x Tin COLD condensed milk (380g tin)
Method:
Beat the evaporated milk until stiff. Add the Dairy Cream and beat again until stiff.
Add the condensed milk and mix in well.
Place in freezer for a few hours.
Notes:
If using a mixer, it only takes 2-3 minutes at medium speed to beat things up.
I am sure one can also add all sorts of flavorings - honey, chocolate, even strawberry pieces / jam.....
And to go with the ice-cream... Hot Chocolate Sauce
