Ingredients for this no churn creamy coffee ice cream

Here are the ingredients you will need to make this easy recipe. Make sure to scroll down to the recipe card for the full detailed ingredient measurements. 

  • Cold heavy cream – We want our heavy cream to be cold so that it easily whips up. 
  • Vanilla extract- This will add a nice depth of flavor. 
  • Regular instant coffee granules– This is what will make our ice cream taste like coffee. It has some caffeine in it but not a huge amount per serving. Just make sure not to overdo it if you are sensitive to caffeine, 
  • Sweetened condensed milk– Use room temperature sweetened condensed milk will help it 
  • Water- We will only need a tiny bit of hot water to dissolve the coffee in a separate bowl before mixing it into the ice cream base mixture.
