No Churn Cherry Vanilla Ice Cream has the old fashioned flavor we remember from our childhoods without all of the work! 
I dearly love cherry vanilla ice cream and this one is right on the money! The best part, though, is that you don’t need an ice cream freezer! Just mix it up, spread it into a pan, and place in your regular freezer in your kitchen. The recipe is below and you’ve got to taste it to believe it! 
To make this, you’ll need: Heavy Cream, Sweetened Condensed milk, Vanilla, and a cup of Candied Cherries, chopped*.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat heavy cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Pour in sweetened condensed milk and vanilla and stir by hand until incorporated.
- Spoon half of this into a freezer safe container (I’m just using a Pyrex loaf pan here) and top with half of the chopped candied cherries. Swirl with a knife just a bit. Top with the remaining ice cream mixture and the remaining cherries and swirl once more.
*See recipe card at bottom for substitution option.
Cover this with foil or cling wrap and freeze for 5-6 hours or overnight. When it is time to serve, remove the container from the freezer and let sit on the counter for 5-10 minutes before serving to soften.
Enjoy this incredibly easy and incredibly delicious No Churn Cherry Vanilla Ice Cream.

I love no churn ice cream recipes. They are so easy to make my own. This cherry ice cream would be great with a little chocolate swirled through it.
Made the Water Pie using Whey Low instead of sugar. Simply wonderful, going to take to a church dinner next month. Thanks for an excellent pie. Ruth in Hoosier land.
Oh I’m so glad to hear it, Ruth! Thank you so much! I have never heard of Whey Low but I’m going to look it up now!
I’m making homemade vanilla for Father’s day Sunday and this post was very helpful. Hubby loves cherry vanilla, so thank you!
My Grandpa and I used to make this in summer sometimes, and now I do with my grandkids. They love it and so do I! We sometimes add chopped white or semi-sweet chocolate chips and my youngest grandson likes to add chopped pecans. Excellent recipe!
Will fat free sweetened condensed milk and a low fat milk still give a creamy texture?
I discovered no churn ice cream a few years ago and I’ve not looked back! Your No Churn Cherry Ice Cream looks so yummy and refreshing for this hot summer Father’s Day weekend we have coming up! Such an easy and perfect recipe to make for Dad!!
