- Remove the mixture from the heat and let it cool slightly, then place it in the fridge to cool and set completely.
- Preparing the Whipped Cream Mixture:
- In another bowl, whisk the packet of whipped cream powder with half a cup of milk using an electric mixer until the consistency thickens and becomes creamy.
- Combining the Ingredients:
- Once the pudding has fully set, add it to the whipped cream mixture and whisk them together using the electric mixer until well combined, and the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
- Freezing:
- Pour the mixture into an airtight container and place it in the freezer for at least 4 hours or until the ice cream is fully set.
- Serving:
