Who doesn’t love ice cream? I mean, ice cream is a staple dessert and something that many of you may have even grown up enjoying as an after-dinner treat.

The problem with ice cream is that it is often packed with sugar and fat – but not if you make your own!

You can whip up your very own ice cream with only a handful of ingredients, and the best part is that you don’t even need an ice cream maker.

Get your spoons and ice cream bowls ready because these recipes are delicious.
