Mermaid Ice Cream
Did you know that, in the original version of The Little Mermaid, the mermaid is rejected by the prince and she dissolves into sea foam in despair? Yeah, kind of a bummer. Let's lift our spirits with some Mermaid Ice Cream.
Ingredients
- 3 c. heavy cream
- 14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- green, blue, and purple food coloring
- Sprinkles for topping (optional)
Instructions
-
In a large bowl, beat heavy cream until medium peaks form. You can use a hand mixer or a stand with a whisk attachment,
-
Fold in sweetened condensed milk and vanilla until everything's combined, then divide mixture among five bowls.
-
Add a different color food coloring to each bowl and stir until combined. Your discretion on how much coloring is needed.
-
Layer dollops of the colored mixtures in a 9"-x-5" loaf pan until you run out of the mixture.
-
Run a knife through the mixtures to swirl the colors 3 or 4 times and then smooth the top.
-
If you're using sprinkles, throw them on now. Put the pan in the freezer. It should take about 5 hours for the mixture to firm up.
-
Remove the pan from the freezer and let for 5 to 10 minutes to soften, then scoop and serve. Dahlin' it's better, down where it's wetter.
