Yield: about 7 ½ – 9 cups (60-66 oz / 1,800-1,950 ml)
400 g Pawpaw puree
14-ounce (400 g) can sweetened condensed milk
2 cups (475 ml) heavy whipping cream or whipping cream
Package (48 g, 1 – 2 Tablespoons) Instant pudding mix, Vanilla
Additionally: pint containers or other freezer container
- Place beaters and mixing bowl for whipping cream in freezer.
- Blend the sweetened condensed milk together with pureed pawpaw until smooth. Pour into a medium sized bowl.
- Whip heavy cream to thickened condition, before soft peaks. Keep bowl as cold as possible.
- Mix in powdered instant pudding mix.
- Whip the heavy cream until medium-stiff peaks form. Do not whip too much as it will be hard to mix the overbeaten cream with the rest of the ingredients.
- Gradually fold in the whipped cream into the condensed milk-fruit-mixtures, until smooth. Don’t be too thorough – over mixing can deflate the mixture.
- Transfer the ice cream base to a metal cake pan to freeze. Press a piece of plastic wrap against the surface of the mixture to prevent ice crystals from forming.
- Depending on your container, freeze until firm for about 4-6 hours, or overnight.
- Scoop out and store in airtight container in freezer.
- Before serving, let the ice cream soften at room temperature until it’s scoopable, about 20 minutes.
