Quick and Creamy Ice Cream

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Quick and Creamy Ice Cream.

1. Step 1

   To start your delicious ice cream adventure, first, chill the bowl of your ice cream maker in the freezer for at least an hour, or until it’s completely frozen.

2. Step 2

   While that’s happening, grab your half-and-half and pop it in the freezer for the last 30 minutes of chilling.

3. Step 3

   Remember to give it a little shake every 10 minutes to keep it nice and cold.

4. Step 4

   Once everything is chilled, pour the half-and-half into a mixing bowl and add the instant pudding mix.

5. Step 5

   Whisk them together until the mixture is smooth and well combined—this is where the magic begins! Now, assemble your ice cream maker with the frozen bowl and turn it on to get that delightful rotation going.

6. Step 6

   Slowly pour the creamy pudding mixture into the ice cream maker through the opening in the lid.

7. Step 7

   Let it churn away for about 30 minutes, or until it reaches your desired consistency.

8. Step 8

   If you can’t resist the temptation, serve the ice cream immediately for a soft-serve treat that’s sure to impress.

9. Step 9

   If you’d like to save some for later, transfer it to individual containers and freeze it.

10. Step 10

    Just a heads up: it may become a bit hard to scoop after freezing, but don’t worry—this mixture also makes fantastic frozen pudding popsicles that are perfect for warm days.
