This creamsicle ice cream is an orange and vanilla lover's dreamsicle come true! No churn ice cream is so easy to make, you can have this in your freezer in about 20-25 minutes. Enjoy!
1can minus 3 level Tablespoons sweetened condensed milkcold
5.5ozorange juice concentratedivided use
1teaspoonvanilla paste or vanilla extract
heavy pinch of salt
2-3drops orange food coloringoptional
Instructions
Place the heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, 2 oz of the orange juice concentrate, salt, and vanilla in the bowl of your stand mixer (or in a large bowl if using a hand mixer).
Save the rest of the sweetened condensed milk for another use (it's good in coffee!)
Whip until the mixture is nice and thick but nowhere near even soft peaks. Whisk should leave tracks in your cream, and the cream should mound just a little in the bowl before sinking back in somewhat. See Video for texture if you're unsure.
Pour 10 oz of your mixture into another bowl.
To that bowl, add 3.5 oz orange juice concentrate and a couple of drops of orange food coloring. Whisk to combine evenly.
Alternate pouring the main base and the orange base into your container. Swirl the two together a bit with a knife, making sure to leave plenty of white and orange streaks.
Freeze at least 6 hours and preferably overnight.
Store in a sealed container. You can press plastic wrap down onto the surface of the ice cream to prevent any off flavors from your freezer.

Notes
How Long Does It Last?
Enjoy your ice cream within 2 weeks of making. It might keep longer, but the flavor will be best within the first couple of weeks.
Chocolate Chip Variation
Melt 3 oz dark chocolate or chocolate chips in the microwave. Spread very thinly onto a non-stick foil-lined pan, and then place in the freezer for 15 minutes.Once the chocolate has set, crumple up the foil to break the sheet of chocolate into small pieces. Pour half into the vanilla base and half into the orange base. Stir each gently and then combine the two mixtures in your freezer container. Freeze for at least 6 hours.
