Description
A fun and easy no‑churn ice cream that captures the unique and nostalgic flavor of Dr Pepper soda.
Ingredients
- 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
- 12 oz cold Dr Pepper soda
- 2 cups cold heavy cream
Instructions
- Place a loaf pan and mixing bowl (with whisk or beaters) in the freezer for 30 minutes to chill.
- In a medium bowl, pour in the sweetened condensed milk and slowly stir in the cold Dr Pepper to minimize foam.
- Remove chilled bowl and equipment; pour cold heavy cream into it.
- Beat on medium‑high speed until slightly frothy (~1 min), then on high until stiff peaks form (~1½–2 min).
- Gently fold whipped cream into the Dr Pepper mixture, one cup at a time, to maintain airiness.
- Transfer mixture into the chilled loaf pan and smooth the top.
- Cover tightly and freeze for at least 6 hours, until firm; check at ~4 hours if desired.
- Scoop and serve once set.
Notes
- Pouring the soda in slowly helps reduce bubbles and improves silky texture.
- This is a no‑churn recipe—no ice cream maker needed.
- Freeze time can vary by freezer; start checking firmness after ~4 hours.
- Serve as is or make a nostalgic Dr Pepper float by adding more soda over scoops.
