Notes
Expert Tips
Use very cold heavy cream for the best whipped texture.
Chill the large bowl before mixing to help the cream whip faster.
Fold the Oreo cookies in gently so they stay chunky.
Do not overmix after adding the whipped cream or the texture can become dense.
Freeze the ice cream overnight for the smoothest texture.
A shallow container helps the batch of ice cream freeze more evenly.
Let the ice cream soften slightly before scooping for easier serving.
Store the ice cream tightly covered to help prevent ice crystals.
