Creamy no-churn ice-cream with roasted pistachio praline and strawberry jam swirls. No ice-cream machine needed to create this gourmet frozen treat!
Ice-Cream! my favourite food ever, and the one thing I could eat for the rest of my life. There is something so addicting about that cold smooth creaminess, and the fact that it can be in sooooo many possible flavours makes it even better!
I uploaded an espresso fudge brownie ice-cream recipe in the past and a lot of you requested for a no-churn ice-cream recipe, which is completely understandable as most of you wouldn’t keep an ice-cream machine handy. Good news for all of you, because you can create equally (or even better) delicious and creamy ice-cream without one!
This recipe uses the classic no-churn ice-cream base of condensed milk and whipped cream, but adds elements like a caramelised, nutty pistachio praline and a sweet strawberry jam. On top of all that there are extra pieces of roasted pistachio to bring some crunch. It is AMAZING. If you are a pistachio ice-cream lover then this will blow your mind. If you aren’t a fan of pistachios you can substitute the nuts for almonds or peanuts! It will be different, but just as delicious~
Once I made this I honestly questioned why we needed ice-cream machines in the first place. This takes out all the fuss of freezing the bowl, churning, etc. and it tastes JUST as good! To help you visualise the texture and consistency of the cream before freezing I’ve also created a video to accompany the recipe. I hope it helps you create some amazing ice-cream from your home! If you make this recipe make sure you tag me on instagram @catherine.justdessertsau and hashtag #cattycakes so I can see and share your creations. Can’t wait to see all the ice-creams you make! Until next time… happy ice-creaming?!

After adding the condensed milk and praline to the whipped cream, the whole thing split. 😭
Hi Silas,
It sounds like the cream may have been a little overwhipped. Make sure to work at a cool temperature and minimise overstirring the whipped cream. Hope that helps!
Thanks for the trip. I'll try again. 😊
