Oreo cookie ice cream

This has to be the easiest ice cream you can make.  There is no cooking involved, you don't need an ice cream maker and you don't even have to keep whisking the mix whilst it freezes.  If you're stuck for a dessert then just whisk some up the day before.  I served it with a simple chocolate sauce that I shall add the recipe for to the bottom.

 
OREO COOKIE ICE CREAM
 
 
  • Packet of Oreo cookies
  • 600ml whipping cream
  • regular tin of condensed milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla paste
Select a 1 litre container preferably with a sealable lid and chop your Oreos into quarters
Whisk the cream, condensed milk and vanilla paste in a large bowl using an electric whisk until it forms soft fluffy peaks
Fold in the chopped Oreos discarding any crumbs
Transfer to your container, cover and freeze for a good half a day or overnight
If freezing overnight remove from the freezer about 20 minutes before serving to soften up
And that is it!
 
 
SIMPLE CHOCOLATE SAUCE
 
 
  • 8oz plain chocolate
  • small carton of double cream
  • 3oz sugar (I used soft light brown)
  • 2 fl oz hot water
 
Place all the ingredients into a small saucepan and gently met together over a low heat stirring all the time till combined and glossy. 
Serve hot or allow to cool
If cooling then it nay be worth stirring from time to time to prevent a skin forming
This will go with anything that needs a chocolate sauce, hot or cold.
