Ingredients
- Recommended Equipment
- For the Tie-Dye Ice Cream
1 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream
1/4 Cup Sugar
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
Light Pink Food Coloring
Neon Pink Food Coloring
Red Food Coloring
Directions
- Add the heavy whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla extract to a mason jar. Put the lid on the jar and shake it for 30 seconds to combine the ingredients and dissolve the sugar.
- Take the lid off the jar and pour the vanilla ice cream into a plastic container.
- Scoop the foam off the top so the cream is smooth.
- Add 7-8 drops each of the light pink, neon pink, and red food coloring around the ice cream mixture.
- Use a toothpick to swirl the food coloring around the top of the ice cream mixture until it reaches a desired swirl.
- Place the ice cream in the freezer and let it freeze for 4 hours or until completely frozen. As the ice cream sets in the freezer the food coloring will settle to the bottom and create a tie-dye affect throughout.
- Once the ice cream is completely frozen, scoop and enjoy!
