You can use nearly any milk for this recipe and can even substitute half and half if you have some on hand. The higher the fat content of your milk the creamier your milk will be. How do you thicken ice cream without the cream? If you prefer a thicker ice cream you can add a little bit of cornstarch to the sugar to create a thickening agent, or a slurry. You can also pour the ice cream from the machine and put into a loaf pan and put into the freezer. This allows the ice cream to set, creating a firmer, thicker ice cream. What is another substitute for cream? If you don’t have any cream on hand and prefer to add some to your ice cream you can add some butter to the milk. This will add more fat to the milk and makes a great substitute for cream in a pinch. This recipe is great as it is and does not require any cream. What kind of ingredients can I add to my ice cream?
