A quick and festive no-churn ice cream recipe featuring Pop Rocks and colorful sprinkles for a fun summer treat that’s easy to make and perfect for parties.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy whipping cream
  • 14 oz (396 g) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup (75 g) red, white, and blue sprinkles
  • 1 small packet (0.5 oz / 14 g) Pop Rocks candy
  • Optional: red and blue gel food coloring
  • Optional: mini marshmallows

Instructions

  1. Chill your mixing bowl and beaters in the fridge for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Pour 1 cup (240 ml) heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl and beat on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 3–4 minutes.
  3. Gently fold in the entire 14 oz (396 g) can of sweetened condensed milk and 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract, maintaining airiness.
  4. If using food coloring, separate the mixture into two bowls and add a few drops of red and blue gel food coloring to each, folding gently until vibrant colors form.
  5. Spoon the red and blue mixtures alternately into a loaf pan and swirl lightly with a knife or skewer. If not coloring, pour the mixture in as is and smooth the top.
  6. Sprinkle about ½ cup (75 g) of red, white, and blue sprinkles evenly over the top.
  7. Cover tightly with plastic wrap or a lid and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until firm.
  8. Just before serving, sprinkle the Pop Rocks candy (about 0.5 oz / 14 g) over the surface to keep the popping sensation fresh and serve immediately.

Notes

Add Pop Rocks just before serving to keep the popping effect alive. Use gel food coloring to avoid thinning the mixture. Chill equipment before whipping cream for best results. Cover ice cream tightly to prevent ice crystals.
