Can you make ice cream with coffee creamer

I have a 2 ingredient surprise for you today. It’s an ice cream recipe that you do not want to miss out on. Trust me on this…

I am always looking for ways to cut down on the ingredients I need to buy when making this or that.  The way I see it: I am a pretty fantastic multi-tasker and I look for the same qualities in my food ingredients as well.  I mean, who wants to buy odds and ends that they may never use again? We don’t have ANY time (or money) for that!

The story: my kids had a craving for chocolate ice cream.  Not the ‘out of the carton‘ kind, but the rich homemade kind that only mom can make.

The problem: I had absolutely NO chocolate in the house.  There is a reason for this. If we have it we will eat it. Pure and simple.

The solution: I used something I have in my refrigerator that I had, until this day, only used in my smoothies, coffee and baked goods.

 International Delight Coffee Creamer! Folks, you may already know this but this creamer makes a pretty fantastic base for ice cream.  No additional ingredients needed other that whole milk. No added sugar, vanilla or-what have you.  This is one of the easiest and quickest ice cream recipes I have-and I have many.  All you need is an ice cream maker.  I am sure you can improvise~ but this recipe uses an electric maker.

Homemade Strawberry Ice Cream is thick, creamy, and amazingly delicious. It is a blissful 2-ingredient, no churn ice cream, speckled with real strawberries!!

This dessert is so good and so easy to make, you may never want store-bought strawberry ice cream again! The recipe comes together in a flash and is sure to be your go-to summer treat.

The warmer weather is on its way and I am getting my ice cream recipes together. Nothing is more refreshing on a hot summer day than a big bowl of homemade ice cream.

If you agree, you definitely need to try my Ice Cream in a Bag, this No-Churn Peaches and Cream Ice Cream, and of course my Triple Berry Sangria Ice Cream.

And, what is a bowl of ice cream if it isn’t topped with Homemade Whipped Cream and a big scoop of my No-Fail Caramel Sauce. Or, maybe you’d prefer my 3-Ingredient Homemade Strawberry Syrup instead.

If you don’t have an ice cream maker, this 2-ingredient ice cream recipe is exactly what you need! You simply combine the ingredients in a bowl, and then pop it in the freezer! The result is a delicious, creamy strawberry ice cream that your whole family will love.

RECIPE VIDEO

Watch the video in the recipe card at the bottom of this post to see us making the strawberry ice cream recipe!!

This strawberry ice cream is smooth and creamy. You process the ingredients in a blender, so there are no chunks in the ice cream.

If you want strawberry ice cream with chunks of strawberries, you can chop a few strawberries and add them right before you pour the ingredients into the freezer container.

You can use a loaf pan like the type you’d make bread in as a freezer container. Or, you can use another type of freezer-safe container. If it has a lid, put the lid on.

Or, you can cover the ice cream carefully with plastic wrap.

2 Ingredient Strawberry Ice Cream Ingredients

All you need to make this delightful frozen treat is a bag of frozen strawberries and a bottle of your favorite coffee creamer. I chose French Vanilla Coffee Creamer when I made this.

Sugar Free Ice Cream Option

Yes, if you’re worried about the sugar content in this coffee creamer ice cream recipe, you can use sugar-free coffee creamer instead of regular creamer.

It’s a great option for a more diabetic-friendly ice cream recipe.

No Churn Ice Cream Recipe Tips

• Use a high power blender like a Blendtec or Vitamix for best results. I have also made this recipe with a Ninja with great success.
• You can also use other frozen fruit (peaches, berries, etc).
• Turn the blender off and scrape down the sides with a silicone spatula as needed.
• If you are out of coffee creamer you can substitute 1 cup whole milk, 3/4 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

How long will this stay good?

This homemade strawberry ice cream is so good, it never lasts more than a few days in our house. But, if you do want to store it for a longer period, you certainly can.

No churn ice cream is best enjoyed within a week of making it. Be sure that you cover the top tightly to prevent freezer burn. I often press plastic wrap over the top for added protection.

For best results, store it in a shallow flat container in the back of the freezer. Never store ice cream in the freezer door.

While you can store it for longer than a week, it may not taste as good as if you ate it sooner. So, feel free to eat a big bowl as often as you like.

Serving Suggestions for Homemade Strawberry Ice Cream

There are so many delicious ways to serve this strawberry ice cream. You can always enjoy a big bowl on its own.

Or, top it with your favorite ice cream toppings. Or, you can have a scoop (or two) in an ice cream cone. Try adding a scoop on a slice of pie or sandwiching it between two shortbread or chewy chocolate chip cookies.

Last week when we went grocery shopping I was really craving ice cream. Being we do not buy ice cream that often, I let my 6-year-old pick out the flavor.

Needless to say, we came home with a chocolate ice cream with chocolate fudge and chocolate brownie bits in it.

Enjoy!

With love, from our simple kitchen to yours.
