How to Make Cookie Dough Ice Cream

For the most part, ice cream is really easy to make, especially with an ice cream maker to do the churning. Make sure your freezer bowl is frozen before churning, I place mine in the back of the freezer so it’s really frozen. So, now, we prep and then we wait.

In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar and milk until the sugar is dissolved. Add in the vanilla and heavy cream, whisk until combined, you can also use a hand mixer here instead of whisking by hand. Cover and refrigerate for 2 – 3 hours or overnight. I tend to make it the night before and churn the next day.

In another bowl mix up the edible cookie dough. Beat up the softened butter and brown sugar using a hand mixer. Then mix in the milk and vanilla. Then beat in the flour. Lastly, stir in the chocolate chips by hand. Cover and refrigerate until ready to make the ice cream.

When you are ready to churn the ice cream, setup your ice cream maker with the freezer bowl. Pour in the ice cream mixture and churn for 15 minutes. At the 10 minute mark, start to drop in pieces of the cookie dough. I used about 1/2 or 3/4 of the cookie dough during the churn.

After 15 minutes, start to transfer the ice cream to a freezer safe container, layering the remaining cookie dough between layers of ice cream. Cover and freeze for 1 – 2 hours or until ready to serve.

Enjoy!
