Summer is here and it is HOT outside. The best way to beat the heat is by making ice cream!

I own two traditional ice cream makers (long story – who needs two, right?) but I just didn’t feel like breaking them out. Luckily, I found this great tutorial on how to make no churn ice cream and used it to make this delicious recipe for no churn honey nut ice cream.

No Churn Honey Nut Ice Cream Recipe

Making no churn ice cream is incredibly simple. Start with sweetened condensed milk and heavy whipping cream. You can make ice cream with just those two ingredients but I needed to do more than that.

First, I added some Rodelle vanilla extract to the condensed milk to give it that extra special vanilla flavor.

Then, when I was pouring the finished mixture into a pan, I added almond slivers and chopped walnuts. I also drizzled honey all over it. ALL over it – I just can’t get enough honey.

In fact, I’ve even been known to sprinkle honey on all the ice cream I eat. I have a honey-problem.

It only takes 6 hours for the ice cream to set in the freezer so you can make this in the morning and enjoy it and the end of the day.

In my opinion, that is way better than going to an ice cream shop or grocery store.
