You won’t be able to resist making your own ice cream once you learn how! The flavor combinations are endless, and you can create a sweet treat to match your upcoming birthday party or classroom get-together. Here is a simple way to make cotton candy ice cream for a unicorn party or just because!

Ice Cream Supplies

All you need is sweetened condensed milk, heavy whipping cream, food coloring (we are using blue and pink), cotton candy flavoring, ice cream sprinkles, and cotton candy. You can find some of these items at the dollar store, Walmart, or even online to make it easy for you.

Place the heavy whipping cream into a medium-size bowl and beat for 3-5 minutes until stiff peaks form. Add the sweetened condensed milk and beat for another 2-3 minutes. Add 1-2 teaspoons of cotton candy flavoring and mix.

Divide mixture into 3 bowls. Leave 1 bowl white and add 2-3 drops of food coloring to the other 2 bowls and mix well.

Add dollops of each color to the bottom of the pan and spread with a knife.

Add sprinkles across the top and repeat steps.

Stick in the freezer for 4-5 hours or overnight. Take out and enjoy!
If you would like, you can add a little bit of cotton candy as a topping!
