Ingredients
Scale:
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup crushed cookies (e.g., Oreos or chocolate wafer cookies)
1/2 cup colorful sprinkles
1/2 cup gummy candies, chopped
1/2 cup chocolate chips, semi-sweet or milk chocolate
Whipped cream for topping
Chocolate syrup for drizzling
Additional sprinkles for topping
Colorful fruit slices (like strawberries or kiwis)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until the sugar is dissolved.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, typically for about 20-25 minutes, or until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Once the ice cream base is churned, gently fold in the colorful mix-ins: crushed cookies, sprinkles, gummy candies, and chocolate chips.
Transfer the mixture into an airtight container, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Cover the container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until the ice cream is firm.
