How to Make a Better No Churn Ice Cream + Tote Bag and #Bookgiveaway from Cleo Coyle




A Coffeehouse Mystery
by Cleo Coyle



Tuesday, September 1, Marc and I will be celebrating the release of our 14th Coffeehouse Mystery Once Upon a Grind in its mass market paperback edition. To help us celebrate, we are delighted to sponsor a fun, little giveaway this week.

Scroll down to the end of this post to find out how to enter to win an autographed copy of our book and a custom-made Coffeehouse Mystery tote bag.

The contest is now over. Thanks to everyone who entered and congrats to the winner, Kathleen Costa!



And now for today's recipe...






"No churn" ice cream appeals to me. It's easy to make, takes little room in my freezer, and does not require reading appliance instructions (huzzah). It's also economical and the way its frozen, in 9 x 5 bread loaf pans, even makes it look like the gelato shops of Italy...


Unfortunately, there is a problem with the most common recipe for "no churn" ice cream, one I have worked to remedy. I'll tell you the specifics of how below. In the meantime, you might be wondering...

Where did this "no churn" idea come from? 

Well, I don't think it's a coincidence that the Eagle Brand Condensed Milk label carries the same recipe as the one found on so many foodie blogs and YouTube videos across the internet. And where did the Eagle Brand company chef get the idea? Possibly from an ancient form of ice cream called Kulfi, which dates back to 16th Century India and is still enjoyed today. Kulfi is made without churning. Cooks boil down milk to a fraction of its original volume, concentrating the sugar and texture-smoothing milk proteins, before chilling.

Fast-forward to the present. While the American market has been dominated by French custard-style ice cream (cream, milk, sugar, and flavorings cooked with eggs or egg yolks before freezing), in recent years, we have seen increasing popularity of "Philadelphia-style" ice cream and a form of Italian Gelato which does not use eggs. 

The No Churn Ice Cream recipes I'm sharing with you today borrow from all of these ideas. I hope you enjoy them...

Why I Revised the Popular
"No Churn" Ice Cream Recipe

Freezing straight cream will get you a block as hard as ice. Adding sugar lowers the freezing point, and churning introduces air, which keeps the ice crystals small and creates that softer, fluffier texture we enjoy scooped onto cones or heaped into dishes.

"No churn" ice cream replaces the
churning of air into the cream with whipping the air into the cream before freezing. This does a good job of keeping the end product as soft and fluffy as churned ice cream. 
But there's a problem with the most common "no churn" recipe I've seen (i.e., cream + sweetened condensed milk). It produces an ice cream that's far too soft, melts too easily, and leaves a waxy aftertaste on the tongue from too much butterfat. In short, it produces a product like ice cream but not as good.

So I began experimenting with that ubiquitous no churn recipe and have come up with an improved version (IMO, of course). Why is it better? A few reasons...

(1) Adding evaporated milk to the mix before freezing creates a final product that has a much cleaner, more ice-cream-like texture, eliminating that waxy butterfat coating on the tongue. It also...

(2) Allows very fine ice crystals to form, which make the final product colder in the mouth and gives it a more stable form in the dish or on your cone. Finally...

(3) By only whipping the cream until its thickened, rather than until it has "stiff peaks" (as most of the other recipes require), the final product is denser and more like a churned ice cream or gelato.

I'm continuing to experiment with flavors and ratios. If you're an ice cream or gelato lover, I invite you to join the foodie fun.

For today, my experiments have yielded nice results with these recipes. May you mix them with love and eat them with joy!

Cleo's No Churn Chocolate Ice Cream

Makes a little over 1 quart, about 5 cups

1/4 cup natural, unsweetened cocoa powder
1 (14 ounce) can Sweetened Condensed Milk (about 1-1/4 cups)
2-1/3 cups Heavy Cream (aka Heavy Whipping Cream)
1/3 cup evaporated milk
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Directions: Into a bowl, fork-whisk the cocoa powder into the sweetened condensed milk. Set aside. 



In a large, chilled metal, glass, or ceramic bowl, beat heavy cream with an electric mixer until thickened. (Do not create whipped cream, simply beat it until it resembles thickened white gravy, as pictured below...) 



Add your chocolate sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and pure vanilla extract. With the mixer on low, blend everything until smooth. Be sure to blend the chocolate all the way through. The mixture should resemble a light chocolate milkshake without any chocolate streaks. 


Pour the blended mixture into a 9 x 5 metal loaf pan. Why? Because a metal pan will conduct the cold better than a plastic container. Do not fill the pan to the very top. Here’s why. 


You'll need to stretch a sheet of plastic wrap across the top of the pan, keeping the plastic from touching the ice cream itself. Place the pan in the freezer for 8 to 12 hours. By then, the entire pan should be ready to serve and enjoy! To store, you can scoop the ice cream into a re-sealable plastic container, or you can continually re-wrap the metal pan in plastic wrap to prevent freezer burn. 








Cleo's No Churn Vanilla Ice Cream

Makes a little over 1 quart, about 5 cups 


2 cups Heavy Cream (aka Heavy Whipping Cream)
1 (14 ounce) can Sweetened Condensed Milk (about 1-1/4 cups)
2/3 cup evaporated milk (or one 5-ounce can)
2-1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 pinches of table salt (or finely ground sea salt)

Directions: In a chilled metal, glass, or ceramic bowl, beat heavy cream with an electric mixer until thickened. 
(Do not create whipped cream, simply beat it until it resembles thickened white gravy.) Add the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, pure vanilla extract, and salt. With the mixer on low, blend the mixture well until smooth. 

Pour the blended mixture into a 9 x 5 metal loaf pan. Why? Because a metal pan will conduct the cold better than a plastic container. Do not fill the pan to the very top. Here’s why. You'll need to stretch a sheet of plastic wrap across the top of the pan, keeping the plastic from touching the ice cream itself. Place the pan in the freezer for 8 to 12 hours.

Cleo's No Churn Coffee Ice Cream 

Makes a little over 1 quart, about 5 cups

2 cups Heavy Cream (aka Heavy Whipping Cream)
1 (14 ounce) can Sweetened Condensed Milk (about 1-1/4 cups) 

2/3 cup evaporated milk (or one 5-ounce can) 
1 Tablespoon instant espresso powder*
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Directions: In a chilled metal, glass, or ceramic bowl, beat heavy cream with an electric mixer until thickened. 
(Do not create whipped cream, simply beat it until it resembles thickened white gravy.) Add the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, instant espresso powder, and vanilla. With the mixer on low, blend the mixture well until smooth. 

Pour the blended mixture into a 9 x 5 metal loaf pan. Why? Because a metal pan will conduct the cold better than a plastic container. Do not fill the pan to the very top. Here’s why. You'll need to stretch a sheet of plastic wrap across the top of the pan, keeping the plastic from touching the ice cream itself. Place the pan in the freezer for 8 to 12 hours. By then, the entire pan should be ready to serve and enjoy! To store, you can scoop the ice cream into a re-sealable plastic container, or you can continually re-wrap the metal pan in plastic wrap to prevent freezer burn.


*Espresso powder note: In baking and cooking, good quality instant espresso powder produces better flavor than instant coffee or coffee crystals, which is why I recommend using instant espresso instead of instant coffee for your recipes. The brand I use is Medaglia D'oro because it delivers the instant espresso in fine powder form, which dissolves beautifully into batters. All is not lost if you have only instant coffee crystals or your instant espresso brand comes in crystal rather than powder form. For best flavor in those cases, whisk the crystals into a small amount of the evaporated milk until completely dissolved before using in this recipe.

  4. Cleo, love the recipe. I'm a huge ice cream lover, so I must try this out! I use evaporated milk to make my ice cream (with churning) - a tip I learned from Sunset Magazine, and now it turns out right every time, without the crystals and hardening! But this look great. Congrats on the release of the MMP #14. Wow!

  12. Cleo, I'm so glad I read your blog post today! I really want to be able to make ice cream at home, but it always ends up being such a chore. Last year after Christmas I bought an ice cream attachment for my KitchenAid mixer, but it takes such a long time because you have to freeze the attachment first then mix the ingredients and then freeze the ice cream - it takes up to two days just fo make a batch. I'm going to try your recipe (not sure which one yet, but probably chocolate!) this weekend! I'm sure it won't be long before I try the other two as well. Congratulations on your upcoming release!

  30. I tried my first no churn ice cream a few weeks ago. I loved the ice cream but the recipe had a lot of "stuff" in it and that just took it over the top rich for me.

  54. Okay, I'm a purist and not afraid to do some churning - and salt-and-ice-adding - and some more churning, to get delicious ice cream. But this is just too tempting not to make! Knowing you, the flavors are full and rich, and the prospect of less work sounds very appealing. I can't wait to try this one. And congratulations on the release of the paperback Once Upon A Grind! One of the best books to come out in the past year, now available in paperback - great news. Good to read with ice cream, too. :-)
