Preparation Steps

In a large mixing bowl, add the heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract. Whisk together for 2-3 minutes until fully combined and smooth.
Pour the mixture into the ice cream maker's bowl and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically 20-30 minutes until a soft-serve texture.
Transfer the soft-serve ice cream into a lidded container and smooth the top. Freeze for at least 4 hours to firm up.
Optional: Stir in mix-ins like chocolate chips or crushed fruit before freezing.
Once firm, scoop the ice cream into bowls or cones and enjoy.
