Cook techniques
Chilling the Mixing Bowl and Beaters
Chill the mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for approximately 15 minutes to ensure that the heavy whipping cream whips up to stiff peaks more easily.
Beating the Cream
Pour the heavy whipping cream and vanilla extract into the chilled bowl. Use an electric mixer to beat the mixture at medium to high speed until stiff peaks form, typically within 1-2 minutes.
Folding Ingredients
Gently fold in the sweetened condensed milk using a spatula or a large spoon. Take care to maintain the volume of the whipped cream by folding rather than stirring.
Incorporating Mix-ins
Add the chopped Golden Oreos and rainbow sprinkles to the whipped mixture. Fold lightly until combined, ensuring that the mix-ins are evenly distributed without deflating the whipped cream.
Freezing the Mixture
Transfer the mixture to an 8×4-inch metal loaf pan. Smooth the top using a spatula and cover it before placing it in the freezer for at least 6 hours or overnight for better consistency.
Serving the Ice Cream
Before serving, allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly, making it easier to scoop. Serve in bowls or cones and top with additional sprinkles if desired.
