Just 5 Ingredients! Authentic Corn Ice Cream — Simply Mix and Freeze

Dessert · Dessert · European30 min(Prep 20 min + Cook 10 min) · 270 kcal per serving · 4 servings · Easy

An authentic ice cream made with plenty of in-season corn that you simply mix and freeze. Corn is microwaved to bring out its sweetness, blended into a paste, and combined with a microwave-cooked egg mixture and heavy cream. It uses no milk — 100% heavy cream — for a rich texture. The flavor of corn spreads through your mouth the moment you take a bite, and a sprinkle of salt gives it a sweet-and-salty salted corn vanilla ice cream feel. It keeps well, making it perfect for hot weather.
