Make Homemade Ube Ice Cream Entirely by Hand (3-Ingredients, No Machines!)

Hi Bold Bakers! Over the past few months you guys have been baking up a storm which is fantastic and sending me even more recipe requests like this one for ube ice cream. Now as our community gets even bigger I'm happy to partner with another big community, Candy Crush Saga. This portion of the video is an ad for Candy Crush Saga by King. Candy Crush Saga is one of the most iconic match 3 puzzle games of all time and is still played by so many people. So my husband Kevin has been playing the game ever since it released in 2012 and he plays it late at night to unwind from the day. Being at home over the last few months I've been playing it more and more and it's just a great way for a little bit of me time. Like when I'm waiting for bread to proof in the oven, in between takes of my show, and even after baby George goes to bed. So let me tell you, the crush is real but I want to know what you guys love to crush. Let me know in the comments below. And if you're not already playing then where have you been? You can download the game for free by clicking the link below. A big big thank you to Candy Crush Saga by King for this ad in this portion of the video. Ok let's get stuck into our ice cream. So you want to start out with a nice big bowl because we're gonna whip in there. And here is one of the stars of the show, it is heavy whipping cream. Something that's around 36% fat content, that's what you need to whip up really well. So it's nice and cold and that goes into the bowl. So here's the thing about this ice cream, it's my two ingredient ice cream, however we are using no machines to make it. I'm gonna show you how you can whip it up all by hand and still get amazing results. So you want to whip this cream up until a round kind of soft peaks form. So make sure you use a nice big bowl for whipping your cream and a good whisk because you need to get all of that air in there and that's what will thicken it. As you can see it's starting to thicken already, just a little bit more to go. This is where the elbow grease comes in. If you need to, turn your bowl on its axis and start whipping that way. Now if it's particularly hot in your country, feel free to stop, put the bowl, the whisk, everything into the fridge, let it get nice and cold and then whip up again. That will really help you to whip this up by hand, it needs to be nice and cold. So there you go, I've got nice soft peaks here, it actually happened a lot quicker than I thought so that was good because I was getting tired. So now into this we're gonna add in our second ingredient and that is sweetened condensed milk. Now I've got a recipe for this on my website, BiggerBolderBaking.com along with the recipe for the ice cream. So we're gonna pour this in here, now this is an important ingredient because it makes your ice cream scoopable and nice and soft. So in with our condensed milk, now we've already whipped it up a good bit so we're gonna go in again and just whip it up until it starts to get a little bit stiffer. It's probably only gonna take around a minute or two. So now usually when I make my two ingredient ice cream I use a stand mixer or a hand mixer but this is all done by whisk so it's so much easier and trust me it's really good because my videos have over 50 million views online for my ice cream alone so you're definitely gonna wanna check those out after this. Ok now let's talk ube, this is the exciting part. So here is ube powder, this is purple yam, so you can see the beautiful purple color. It is a very common ingredient in Asia, we get a huge amount of requests for ube, cakes, ice creams, donuts, whatever you have, and it is kind of like a nutty flavor, I also think it's quite floral and perfumey in a really nice kind of a way. It is kind of like an earthy tone, it's really really delicious so I'm gonna put a link on my website of where you can buy this powder. I'm also going to add in some of this ube flavoring just to give it an extra pump of ube. So like I said people say it has kind of like a nutty flavor, I actually think it has almost like a florally flavor, almost the way lavender has that kind of floral perfumey kind of flavor to it. And then with my spatula I'm just gonna fold those in and just watch this color come together. So as you can see purple yams have a beautiful vibrant color which just makes for a gorgeous looking ice cream. Now I'm gonna add in a little bit more flavor to give me a richer color and more of that kind of nuttiness. There you go, in no time at all, homemade ice cream by hand, super easy. While it was at three ingredients, into our loaf pan we go. Smooth the ice cream out on top and then give it a quick little bang on the countertop and that just releases any air bubbles. And then into the freezer for only around five hours or so, and tada! Here's one I prepared earlier. Look at that, look how gorgeous that color is. So one of the beauties of my ice cream is that it's really easy to scoop, look at that, into your bowl. This doesn't need much dressing up at all, it's so good just as it is. Now this is my favorite part of the job, where I get to give it a taste, oh my gosh. It almost tastes like the best raspberries in season, I don't know, the flavor is just so unique and absolutely delicious. Let me know in the comments below what other ube desserts you'd like to see me make, because I definitely want to do more of this around here, and I'll see you back here again really soon. Mmm, delicious.
