Instructions for Ice Cream Cookies N Cream Recipe
Mix the condensed milk and the vanilla extract in a metal bowl and place in freezer while you whip the heavy cream and chop the chocolate sandwich cookies (Oreos).
Place your heavy cream in a freezer cold bowl and whip until stiff peaks form. Add the condensed milk and vanilla extract mixture slowly into the bowl with the whipped cream.
Let the condensed milk run down the edges and mix on low until you have poured all the mixture in and it is mixed in with the whipped cream.
Pour the mixture into a storage container or a loaf pan that is layered with ground up Oreo cookies.
Layer more Oreo cookies on top of the first layer, then pour the remaining ice cream on top and layer more of the Oreo cookies on top.
Carefully mix and immediately place in freezer.
Why Freeze Bowls When Making Ice Cream?
Freezing the bowls isn't necessary. But if you want creamy, smooth ice cream it's best to freeze your whisk, bowls and your freezer safe storage container(s) before you begin.
Keeping the bowls cool will in turn keep the whipping cream cool and prevent the whipping cream from crystallizing.
It's also a good idea to freeze any products you will be using if possible, like sandwich cookies so that when you add them to the whipped cream mixture, they help to maintain the temperature of the whipped cream ice cream rather than it going up and down. This in turns help to prevent a big temperature change and will prevent some crystallization.

Hint: Freeze all your bowls, whisk, storage containers prior to whipping the cream
Substitutions and Variations for No Churn Homemade Ice Cream
Here are some ideas on how to make this Homemade No Churn Ice Cream Unique:
- Cookie Monster Ice Cream - Use the base, add some blue food coloring, chopped up Oreos, chopped up chocolate chip cookies, and edible cookie dough bites.
- Chocolate Gelato - Ice cream made with milk instead of cream that is full of chocolate flavor.
- Torrone Ice Cream - A nougat ice cream that is so rich tasting with flavors of almond that tastes just like the one at the ice cream parlor down the street

Equipment Recommended to Make No Churn Ice Cream
Since this ice cream is no churn, you don't need an ice cream maker. But you will need a hand mixer or a stand mixer. A food processor or a mini food processor comes in handy too to chop up your oreo chocolate sandwich cookies.

Storing Your Homemade Ice Cream
It goes without saying that you will need a freezer safe container that is large enough to hold your ice cream. Glass works best.
Freeze for at least 12 hours if you want a soft serve type ice cream. Otherwise freeze for 24 hours before serving. Consume your ice-cream within 3 weeks to avoid that dreaded freezer burn.
