FAQ
1. What is no-churn ice cream?
No-churn ice cream is a homemade ice cream that doesn’t require an ice cream maker. It’s made by whipping heavy cream and folding it into a sweetened condensed milk mixture for a creamy, scoopable texture.
2. Do I need to heat-treat the cake mix?
Yes! Heat-treating the dry cake mix kills any bacteria. To do this, microwave it in a microwave-safe bowl for 30 seconds, stirring halfway, or bake it on a lined baking sheet at 350°F for 5 minutes.
3. How long does no-churn ice cream take to freeze?
It typically takes at least 6 hours to freeze completely, but for best results, let it sit overnight.
4. Can I use a different type of cake mix?
Absolutely! While Funfetti cake mix adds a classic sprinkle-filled flavor, you can swap it for vanilla, chocolate, or even strawberry cake mix.
5. How should I store homemade no-churn ice cream?
Keep it in an airtight, freezer-safe container for up to 2 weeks to maintain freshness. If it’s too hard to scoop, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving.
