Once the ice cream has reached a soft-serve consistency, transfer it to an airtight container and place it in the freezer to harden completely. This will take approximately 3-4 hours. (4 hours)
For an even richer flavor, consider using vanilla bean paste instead of extract.
If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can still make this recipe! Pour the chilled mixture into a freezer-safe container and freeze for 30 minutes. Remove and whisk vigorously to break up any ice crystals. Repeat this process every 30 minutes for 2-3 hours, or until the ice cream reaches your desired consistency.
Experiment with different extracts or flavorings to create your own unique ice cream variations. Almond extract, peppermint extract, or even a splash of coffee liqueur would be delicious additions.
