    Lotus Biscoff Ice Cream with Milk Chocolate (no churn)

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    No churn, easy Lotus Biscoff ice cream with Lotus Biscoff spread, Lotus biscuits and milk chocolate all swirled through a creamy vanilla ice cream.

    No churn Biscoff and milk chocolate ice cream which takes only 10 MINUTES to make! This recipe creates a whole 2lb loaf tin's worth of ice cream. Far more than the supermarket standard tubs and far more scrummy!

    I mean just take a few seconds to feast your eyes on this beauty. If you saw this Biscoff and chocolate ice cream in your local ice cream parlour there would be no competition.

    And yet you can make your very own in - LITERALLY - 10 minutes (plus another few hours of freezing time of course). I know I keep banging on about how quick it is, but I'm truly amazed at just how easy home made ice cream is to make. Who knew 😲 ?!? Not me until recently anyway! What a lovely surprise! Except I now can't stop eating it because it's yum` on another level. Stratospheric yum.

    All these years I have always assumed a) I'd need an ice cream maker, b) it'd be a faff, c) it wouldn't taste as nice as shop bought ice cream.

    Soooo wrong! I have wasted so much of my life buying tubs and tubs of the stuff when home made ice cream is an absolute dream!

    So the reason I decided to make Lotus Biscoff ice cream is - in all honesty - because we were going away for a few days at the weekend. Yay, our first break in months, no more locked in in lockdown! Felt like being an escapee. Almost seems daring and a bit naughty to actually venture out. Anyway, as such, I needed a fast, fun, quick and easy recipe which also involved copious amounts of Lotus Biscoff in various forms. You may have noticed that I am currently doing everything possible with the stuff. It's a fad, I may grow out of it. I may not. It tastes way too good. By the way, if you love Lotus Biscoff you will definitely love my Biscoff apple crumble.

    And because Biscoff ice cream take 10 minutes to make (have I mentioned that already?!) it was the perfect choice.

    And, it was wonderful to return home from lovely, sunny Dorset and be able to indulge in an Biscoff ice cream treat. It kept the mini-break going just a little longer.

    How to make Biscoff ice cream

    So this will be the quickest recipe-how-to summary so far.

    You literally take your double (heavy) cream, condensed milk and vanilla bean paste and add it all into a large mixing bowl. Begin beating, slowly at first, with the whisk attachment. Once the mixture starts to thicken a little speed up the whisking and so on until you are pretty much at full speed. Once the cream is thick and reaching gentle peaks it is ready. It will resemble clotted cream when done.

    And that is the ice cream all made! So simple!

    • ice cream whipped
    • ice cream whisked

    You can whisk by hand, but there's an awful lot of cream and milk to beat and it will take a long time. On the upside the exercise you will have done will permit you to indulge in more ice cream. So every cloud...

    Chop your milk chocolate up. Keep it in little nuggety chunks. Pop your Lotus Biscoff biscuits into a sandwich bag, seal the bag and bash with a rolling pin. You want to bash them until you have a mix of very small pieces and Biscoff dust. Melt your Biscoff spread in a microwave so it is just runny enough to pour, about 15-20 seconds should do it.

    • crushed biscoff biscuits
    • chopped chocolate

    Take one third of your ice cream and add to the loaf tin. Pour over one half of your melted Biscoff spread. Sprinkle over one half of your crushed Biscoff biscuits and then one half of your chopped chocolate. Take a skewer or a cocktail stick and swirl these three around into your ice cream. Don't over swirl as you don't want it all totally mixed in. A marbled effect is what you are after.

    Repeat the above step.

    Add your last layer of ice cream. Melt your topping Biscoff spread and pour over the ice cream. Swirl with your skewer or cocktail stick. Sprinkle over your crushed topping Biscoff biscuits. Scatter your topping chopped chocolate down the centre of the ice cream.

    Done! 10 MINUTES. Maybe less?

    Why does this ice cream recipe work so well?

    Condensed milk: condensed milk is boiled down cow's milk, ie it has a reduced water content. Sugar is added to sweeten it. Don't get it mixed up with evaporated milk though, that follows the same process but has no added sugar. Not good for lovely sweet vanilla ice cream. As condensed milk contains sugar already, there is no need to add more to sweeten the ice cream....it does the whole job for you in one little tin.

    The sugar in the condensed milk also ensures the ice cream remains soft and doesn't freeze solid. AND it works with the fat from the double cream to produce a silky, smooth ice cream.

    Clever stuff eh.

    Double cream (heavy cream): whisking double cream creates the air bubbles needed to make perfect ice cream.

    Vanilla bean paste: you can use vanilla extract but I prefer vanilla bean paste as it is quite sweet and full of wonderful little vanilla seeds, which look great throughout the ice cream.

    So that's it.

    The only problem you will have with this recipe is resisting it.

    Confession: I have now locked mine in the garage freezer because my will power was really really letting me down.... 🤣

    Enjoy and please do rate my recipe if you can.

    TOGGLE TO ALTER SERVINGS (metric only) 2 lb loaf tin
    Prevent your screen from going dark

    Here's what you'll need...

    • 2 lb loaf tin or similar
    • Stand mixer or electric whisk
    • Skewer or cocktail stick

    Ingredients you'll need...

    Biscoff ice cream

    • 600 ml double cream (heavy cream)
    • 397 g tin of condensed milk
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or extract
    • 8 Biscoff biscuits crushed
    • 50 g milk chocolate chopped
    • 250 g Biscoff spread

    Topping

    • 150 g Biscoff spread
    • 50 g milk chocolate chopped
    • 4 Biscoff biscuits crushed

    Here's what we do...

    Biscoff ice cream

    • Fit the whisk attachment to your stand mixer or hand mixer.
    • Add your double cream, vanilla paste and condensed milk to your bowl and start to whisk on a low speed.
    • After about 30 seconds, or once the cream mixture has started to thicken a little, turn the setting up to a medium-high.
    • Whisk for about a minute until thicker still then turn up to high.
    • Once the ice cream mixture starts to thicken it will be ready, in my stand mixer this took about 2 minutes. It will resemble clotted cream when ready.
    • Melt your Biscoff spread in your microwave for about 20 seconds until runny but not hot, then give it a good mix.
    • Take about one third of your ice cream and spread it out into the bottom of your loaf tin.
    • Take your melted Biscoff and pour over about a half onto your ice cream.
    • Take your skewer or cocktail stick and swirl it around to create a marble effect in the ice cream.
    • Take about a half of your Biscoff crushed biscuits and chopped chocolate and sprinkle over.
    • Repeat again, so you have 2 layers.
    • Place your third layer of ice cream mixture into the tin.

    Biscoff ice cream topping

    • Again, soften your Biscoff spread in your microwave for about 15 seconds until just runny.
    • Pour over the final layer of ice cream.
    • Sprinkle over your crushed Biscoff biscuits.
    • Sprinkle over your remaining chopped chocolate down the centre of the ice cream.
    • Cover with clingfilm and freeze for 4-6 hours until set.
