    I made vanilla ice cream from scratch and used readymade packet jelly for convenience. The one thing you have to remember is while cooking the custard please cook in a slow flame or else the egg will get scrambled. If the egg looks like it is getting curdled, don't panic. Just take it off the heat and immerse the pot in some ice cold water.

    About Jelly Ice cream

    Jelly Ice cream is a popular ice cream of choice which is loved by many. It is one of my childhood favorite ice cream or choice. Even though making jelly at home is easy, it can seem tedius. So you can opt for ready packet jello for ease.

    The ice cream which I made in this recipe is homemade. I made it the authentic way using milk and egg yolks and it turned out super creamy and dreamy. Once you try this version of ice cream, you will definitely be making it more and more.

    Jelly Ice cream Ingredients

    Whole milk - use full fat milk for making this ice cream, since this recipe doesn't uses cream. You have to use full fat milk. Low fat milk or dairy free milk like almond milk won't work.

    Egg yolk - this ice cream is made the authentic way. It uses egg yolks to make the custard.

    Sugar - you can reduce the sugar quantity as per your taste. I used granulated sugar.

    Vanilla Extract - use the finest quality vanilla extract for making this ice cream. You can use vanilla bean for intense vanilla flavour.

    Instant Jello - for the jello part, I used store bought jello packets which make my life easy and simple.

    Expert Tips

    • Use full fat milk for maximum creamy texture. Using low fat milk won't work.
    • You cannot use almond milk, oat milk or other dairy free milk in this recipe.
    • For more creamy ice cream, you can use ½ cup of cream.
    • Once egg yolk is mixed with milk, cook it on low heat stirring constantly else it may curdle.

    What to do if my custard curdles?

      Icecream looks wonderful..perfectly done without the icecream maker.
      My mom used to make this in our childhood days and pour in the ice cube trays.. reminds of child hood days.
      Icecream for 150Rs that is too much...Didn't u see the price in the menu card before u ordered it???

      @Archana ...thanks dear...Hope you enjoyed my story..I just poured into my mould and unmoulded,i didn't do anything..I think it depends on the jelly crystals you are using a the mould...I would advise you to try this with "Jello jelly crystals"..Or try to spread some oil in the jelly mould and then pour your liquid in it...

      @Food Glorious Food..yes it is ....You are welcome..

      @Raina...I am happy that u enjoyed my story...Thankyou dear..It is a great recipe to try without icecream maker...
