What Is No-Churn Ice Cream?
No churn ice cream is made with no ice cream machine.
When a machine is used, it churns the ice cream mixture to thicken it as it freezes. Whereas no churn ice cream is whisked until thickened and left to set in the freezer.
As no machine is required, no-churn ice creams are usually made with condensed milk which adds sweetness and softens the ice cream making it scoopable.
I love no-churn ice cream, it makes this Crunchie ice cream recipe so easy to make and the flavour is incredible.

Crunchie Ice Cream Recipe
When I think of honeycomb, Crunchie is pretty much the only chocolate bar in the UK I can think off.
This no-churn honeycomb ice cream has lots of Cadbury Crunchie bars in it. It’s crushed to provide small crunchy pieces of honeycomb throughout.
I used 3 bars in the ice cream and one bar for the decoration. I got a a multipack of 4 from my local supermarket (it’s cheaper than buying 4 bars separately).
How To Make Homemade Honeycomb
If you don’t want to use chocolate Crunchie bars in this ice cream recipe, you can make honeycomb from scratch! Here’s how to make it below:
To make homemade honeycomb from scratch, line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Over a medium heat mix 100g of golden syrup and 200g caster sugar together until it forms a golden-brown caramel. Remove from the heat and add 2 teaspoons of baking powder and whisk whilst the mixture bubbles. Be careful as the mixture gets quite hot!
Pour the liquid into the lined baking tray and leave to cool down until it has set. Then break it into pieces.
How Do You Make Homemade Ice Cream Creamy And Not Icy?
This ice cream is far from icy, it’s smooth and so creamy. This is because alongside using double cream, this recipe uses condensed milk.
Condensed milk contains lactose sugar which lowers the freezing point of the ice cream mixture. This helps to prevent large crystals of ice forming.
