A delicious no churn Chocolate & Blood Orange Ice Cream with Candied Chocolate Blood Oranges.
Easy Homemade Blood Orange Ice Cream
Homemade indulgent, creamy and delicious ice creams are time consuming to make.
In this recipe, you need very few ingredients and no ice cream maker! It is a fuss free recipe if you are not making your own candied oranges. The ice cream itself requires very little effort on your part. You can change the flavours up as much as you like too.
Ingredients in No Churn Ice Cream
There are 2 main ingredients:
- Double Cream
- Condensed Milk
I also add Chocolate and Blood Orange Juice and I make Candied Oranges for the top.
How to make Blood Orange Ice Cream
Make Candies Oranges by simmering sliced oranges in water, sugar, golden syrup. Simmer for 40 minutes. Remove from heat and dry for 24 hours. Dip in Chocolate.
Whip the double cream until soft peaks form.
Add condensed milk and whip till stiff peaks form.
Add flavours of choice. I added chocolate and blood orange juice. You can also add Vanilla.
Pour into a metal loaf tin and freeze for 4 hours or overnight.
To serve, allow ice cream to sit out of the freezer at room temperature for 10 – 15 minutes, use a warm wet ice cream scoop to scoop ice cream into cones or dishes.
Vanilla Extract
If you use Vanilla Extract it will be a soft scoop ice cream because the alcohol content in the extract stops the ice cream from setting too firmly but because of my religious beliefs, I don’t use it. So for that reason, it is best to leave it out for 10 – 15 minutes after it comes out of the freezer before serving.
How long does Blood Orange Ice Cream last?
This no-churn ice cream lasts for months in the freezer. Keep the container well sealed to avoid freezer burn.
Tips for making the best No Churn Ice Cream
Use full fat Double Cream – Lighter versions won’t work here.
Chop any textured add in’s – If you are adding anything into the ice cream such as M & M’s, chop them up first because they do become very hard.
Whip Cream to soft peaks – Use a hand or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip the cream on medium/high speed for 3 minutes until soft peaks form.
Whip to stiff peaks – After the condensed milk goes in, whisk to stiff peaks. That means the peaks hold their shape and will be firmer than before. Take care not to over whip at this stage or your cream will curdle. It is so easily done so keep an eye on it.
Use Blood Orange Syrup – Blood Orange Syrup or Juice will both work. You can also add Blood Orange Syrup as a drizzle to the top of the ice cream when serving.
Variations
You can add any flavours you like such as:
- Mixed Berries
- Curds such as Lemon
- Cereal
- Nuts
- Chai Spices
- Biscuits, Pretzels, Chocolate Treats
How to Make Dairy-Free/Vegan Homemade Ice Cream
Use Full Fat Coconut Milk and Vegan Condensed Milk instead.
