Review:
I made this recipe on the weekend and it worked very well! The resulting icecream is super creamy and very rich. It could probably do with a bit less sugar, I wonder how it would work with unsweetened condensed milk?
The downside to this recipe is the cost: 600ml of whipping cream, 400g Condensed milk and a packet of Gluten Free Choc biscuits to make GF Cookies and Cream icecream came out to over $10. It's loads cheaper to just buy ice cream. If however, you are looking for a school holiday/weekend activity to do with the kids, or making an ice cream flavour that otherwise doesn't exist (or in my case, both), this is a wonderful recipe. It is very easy to make if you have electric beaters.
Agree about the price. Just the cream and condensed milk will cost over $6 and really only makes 1l of ice cream (though it's aired up volume wise a bit). You can get Peters 2l for $5.50.
It's definitely more of a novelty/specialty thing to do.
If you want another fun dessert, that's not quite so minimal effort as the ice cream, have a look around for Chocolate Eclair cake recipes. It's fun, and no cooking required. It's basically, biscuits, whipped pudding/cream, and some choccy icing. Again will probably cost $10 all up, but it's pretty damn good for low effort - and not even turning on an oven! The hardest part is the waiting .... ๐
The family will often over-cater on the cream front at Christmas. I can see this being a great use of a spare cream carton. Plus again, holidays activities with the kids. ๐
