UNICORN ICE CREAM
Ingredients:
- 2 cups whipping cream
- One 14-ouce can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- Food coloring
- Sprinkles or edible glitter
Directions:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the whipping cream until peaks form (it will start to look like cool whip).
- Pour the can of sweetened condensed milk & vanilla into the whipped cream, and fold the whipped cream and condensed milk together until combined.
- Separate the ice cream 4 bowls. Add 4 drops of your preferred food coloring choice to each bowl and mix. Add more food coloring as needed to reach your desired color.
- Using a standard loaf pan, layer the ice cream. Place ½ of each color in the pan in big dollops. Then repeat the color layering.
- Run a butter knife or popsicle stick through the ice cream a few times in each direction to swirl the colors together just a little bit.
- Top the ice cream with sprinkles or edible glitter (because we all know unicorns are glittery).
- Cover the loaf pan with plastic wrap and freeze for 8 hours to overnight, or until the ice cream has set up and you’re ready to serve!
Scoop up into your favorite cones and watch eyes light up. Seriously, I couldn’t scoop fast enough for my little ones! And you know, it’s ALWAYS okay to add more glitter.
