Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions
 

  • Place two sheet pans in the freezer for at least 15 minutes.
  • Add the heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla and salt to a bowl. Whisk to combine.
  • Divide the mixture between the two sheet pans. Place them in the freezer on a level surface.
  • Freeze for at least 4 hours, until completely frozen.
  • Start on the long side of the pan. Use a sharp edged spatula (between 2-3 inches) to roll from end to end, rolling up the ice cream into rolls.
  • Place the rolled ice cream into serving bowls. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

    • The rolled ice cream will melt really quickly, so it’s important to keep your sheet pans very cold. I like to roll my ice cream and then place the rolls back onto a frozen parchment lined baking sheet and freeze for about 30 minutes so that they will not melt as quickly in the bowl. You can also freeze your serving bowls to help make the rolled ice cream last longer.
    • You can keep leftover rolled ice cream in the freezer for about a week. Just flash freeze on a baking sheet and then place in a freezer-safe bag or container. 
    • Use a sharp straight-edge spatula, about 3-inch in width, to roll the ice cream. Go slowly so that the ice cream does not break or fold in on itself.
    • I like to use two 9x13-inch baking sheets for this recipe to get the right thickness for the rolled ice cream. If you don’t have enough freezer space, leave the remaining mixture in the fridge until you are ready to freeze the next batch on the baking sheet. You can also cut this recipe in half if need be.
