Add the crushed cookies last: It makes it so much easier to fold this mixture into the

LET IT FREEZE: Yes! We all want to dive into this goodness. However, let the ice cream freeze and settle into it’s state before you go scooping it into a cone. We promise…it’ll be worth the wait!

Hand Mixer vs Stand Mixer: This recipe can be made perfectly with a hand mixer or a stand mixer. You’ll want to start out on a low speed when beating the heavy whipping cream. Slowly increase your speed as your whipped cream starts to thicken. As soon as you see the whipped cream peak, STOP! You’re ready to add the rest of the ingredients.

Loaf Pan: Lining your loaf pan with parchment paper isn’t a must, but it really helps in the long run! It’s so easy to slide out the ice cream, cleanse the pan, & move onto your next baked good!

Defrost & enjoy! Depending on your freezer, this no churn monster cookie ice cream will be so hard you might want to let it sit out for 10-15 minutes to soften up.
