Instructions
Step 1
Begin by **whipping the cold heavy cream** in a large mixing bowl. Start at a slow speed and gradually **increase to medium** over 2-3 minutes.
Once the cream starts to thicken, gently fold in the **mascarpone cheese**. Continue whisking and gradually add in the **sweetened condensed milk**. This mixture will begin to thicken further as you combine these ingredients over the next 4-5 minutes.
Step 2
Before you pour your ice cream mixture, **line your pan (40 cm x 20 cm or 15.7 in x 7.9 in)** with parchment paper. This will make it much easier to remove your ice cream later.
Start layering by adding a layer of **chocolate cookies** followed by your cream mixture. Feel free to add **Nutella**, **dark chocolate**, or any other flavorings of your choice in between the layers.
Repeat the **layering process** with more cookies and cream until all ingredients are used up.
Step 3
Cover the pan with foil and place it in the **freezer for 4-5 hours**, or ideally overnight. The longer you freeze it, the better the texture will be.
When you’re ready to serve, gently remove the ice cream from the pan using the parchment paper. Slice into squares and enjoy your delicious homemade cookie ice cream!
Servings
When it comes to serving your Cookie Ice Cream, the possibilities are endless! 🍦✨ Imagine a lazy summer afternoon, gathering with friends around a picnic table, and dishing out generous scoops of this creamy delight. Pair it with fresh berries, drizzle some chocolate sauce, or sprinkle on crushed nuts for that irresistible crunch!
For an extra special treat, serve it in homemade waffle cones for a fun twist. You could even turn it into a sundae with whipped cream and a cherry on top. Don't forget to bring out some colorful sprinkles to make it pop! 🎉

Equipment
A large mixing bowl is essential for whipping your cream and combining ingredients. Use one that can hold at least 2 liters to give you enough space to mix without mess.

Variations
If you’re looking for ways to cater to different dietary needs, try these gluten-free and vegan variations! 🌱
Gluten-Free: Use gluten-free cookies in place of the regular chocolate cookies. You’ll achieve the same great flavor without the gluten! Chocolate chip or gluten-free oreos work beautifully, giving you that texture and taste you crave.
Vegan: Swap the heavy cream for coconut cream and the mascarpone for a dairy-free cream cheese alternative. Make sure to use sweetened condensed coconut milk to keep that creamy nature!
These variations ensure that everyone can indulge in this creamy cookie ice cream, so don’t hesitate to get creative!
Faq
- What should I do if my cream doesn’t whip up?
Make sure your cream is very cold and your mixing bowl is also chilled. If your cream is too warm, it won't whip properly!
- How long can I store the ice cream?
Your homemade cookie ice cream can last up to 2 weeks in the freezer if stored in an airtight container. Just remember to let it sit at room temperature for a bit before scooping for easy serving!
- Can I use different types of cookies?
Absolutely! Feel free to experiment with any cookies you love, whether it's peanut butter cookies, ginger snaps, or even homemade cookies!
- Why does my ice cream feel icy instead of creamy?
If ice crystals form during freezing, it means it wasn’t mixed enough or perhaps left out too long before serving. Ensuring even mixing and proper freezing should help keep it creamy.
- How do I add mix-ins without ruining the texture?
Gently fold in any extra ingredients like fruits or nuts after the ice cream base is mixed and fluffy. This way, your mix-ins will be well distributed without affecting the creaminess!
- Can I make this without an electric mixer?
Yes! While it may take a bit more effort, you can whip the cream manually using a whisk. Just make sure to whisk vigorously and consistently until peaks form!
