No Churn Cherry Vanilla Ice Cream #IceCreamSocial

Sharing is caring!

Man has it been hot the last week.   I know it’s summer but when we go from a cool 65 or 70 degrees to a sweltering 90 degrees it gets a little rough.   If there is one thing to help cool me off in the summer it’s ice cream.   I can go most of the year without eating ice cream but as soon as the weather heats up I seem to want it all the time.

July just happens to be National Ice Cream Month and I’ve gotten together with some of my food blogging friends to share some of our favorite frozen treats.   Now I don’t have an ice cream maker so whenever I do make my own ice cream it’s always no churn.   I don’t mind making it this way and as long as I keep the base the same I can add any ingredients to it I want and it comes out delicious.

Last week my friend Leslie wrote me to say that she was going to an orchard to pick cherries and asked if I wanted some.  Since cherries are my absolute favorite fruit I said yes.   She ended up bringing back several buckets of cherries and I was able to take a few pounds home.  I knew the cherries would be awesome in a no churn ice cream.

I’ve always loved cherry vanilla ice cream so that’s what I went with.  I made the no churn ice cream base out of heavy whipping cream and sweetened condensed milk and then added in the cherries.   I had several types of cherries and added them all in.  Some were super sweet while others added a nice contrast of tartness to the ice cream.  I finished off with vanilla extract.

The ice cream ended up being fairly sweet but the sweetness was cut by the tart cherries which worked well.  The vanilla flavor was a little light and next time I’ll probably scrape a vanilla bean into the cream mixture to give it some added flavor.  Overall I found this No Churn Cherry Vanilla ice cream to be refreshing and perfect for enjoying in the summer.
