There is nothing better than fresh homemade ice cream, but often making traditional custard based ice cream and tempering eggs just seems so fussy and time consuming.

How to make this no churn ice cream recipe
This recipe is simple to make! For the full set of directions, please scroll down to the recipe card below. This is just a general overview on how to make it to help you plan.
- Unwrap each individual Andes chocolates and break them into bits. This will make about ¾ cup of chocolate bits.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the peppermint extra with the condensed milk. Stir together until fully mixed. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream. Whip with an electric hand mixer (affiliate link) for 3-4 minutes or until the cream is tall and frothy on its own.
- When you’re done whipping the cream, fold in the evaporated milk mixture and stir until ingredients are fully combined and smooth.
- Add 10 drops of green food coloring and mix well. This will give your ice cream a light green coloring that is subtle yet minty-looking.
- Fold in ⅔ of your Andes bits. Stir well.
- Pour ice cream mixture into a 9”x5” loaf pan and place inside the freezer for 1.5-2 hours.
- Remove from the freezer and add in the remaining ⅓ Andes bits. Return to the freezer for the remaining time or overnight.
- When you’re ready to enjoy the ice cream, remove it from the freezer and scoop into a bowl or waffle cone.
Recipe Note: Feel free to leave the green food coloring out if you want!
Recipe Tips
- If you can find regular mint extract instead of peppermint extract, that will make a huge and awesome flavor difference!
- The food coloring is not necessary in this recipe (and really I like it best without), but it does give the nice color we are used to.
Storage information
Store this ice cream covered with plastic wrap and a tightly fitting lid inside the deepest part of your freezer for 5-7 days. After that it could start to develop ice crystals.
Homemade ice cream does best when stored in a low flat container like a loaf pan. Press a piece of plastic wrap on the surface so it touches the ice cream to help prevent freezer burn.
Serving Tips
This ice cream is pretty spectacular on its own, but if you want to really make it special, try serving it with:
- Homemade whipped cream
- Hot Fudge Sauce
- Sprinkles
