I have been making this recipe for 25 years and still love it! It's creamy, tasty, easy and quick. Now that I have a Cuisinart Ice Cream maker, I combine all the ingredients and put it in the ice cream maker...no whipping the cream.

This was my first attempt at homemade ice cream. I found this recipe to be very easy. I read all the reviews first and made some changes to the ingredients. I used 1 c. of whipping cream and 1 c. of half and half instead of 2 c. of whipping cream. I also used 1/3 c. of Hersey's unsweetened coco instead of the syrup. I really enjoyed the flavor and the ice cream didn't seem to be real rich like some of the reviews. It was a huge success with my family. The texture was excellent and creamy.

Husband complained it didn't have traditional "grainy texture" of homemade ice cream - that's the best part! Very smooth, flavorful, doesn't take much to satisfy sweet tooth. OUTSTANDING.

ok, for those who experience problem like i do - ice cream wont freeze - u need to take it out, beat using electric mixer at high speed and re-freeze. perhaps next time reduce the condensed milk and avoid using hersheys choc syrup..some said if the content of sugar is too high, it wont freeze.

This was delicious! Everyone loved it! I made half da recipe and I couldn't use choc syrup cuz we never by em. I used cocoa instead and it was great! My parents said its real sweet but they still liked it. My sisters and I love it and I was just eating some a while ago :D. I made this in a matter of minutes in our ice cream machine. This was our first "proper" ice cream we made! This is definitely a keeper! Thx for posting the recipe!

I didn’t like the soft texture and taste of the ice cream. The mixture is extremely rich and a few substitutions should be made. After eating two or three tablespoons I had to drink large quantities of water to get rid of the thick and creamy residue. However I will give this recipe 3 stars because it looks nice in a bowl.

This was easy and we all loved it. I will definitely make this again. It has the consistancy of soft-serve. I read one of the reviews and lowered the temperature in the freezer. I gave it a 4 out of 5 because the taste of the syrup is very pronounced. You can tell it is made with syrup, and not baking chocolate or cocoa powder.

Very simple, very sweet! The third time I made this I just added the ingredients into a 1qt. plasic bowl with a tight lid and shook it for two minutes. I found it needed to be stired every two hours twice, then froze overnight.

YUMMY!!! Tastes like a heavenly smoother version of a Wendy's frosty, only 10 x better!! My husband made this in a matter of minutes in our ice cream machine and even the neighbours were lining up with spoons after someone bragged about my hubby's homemade ice cream! Terrific recipe and highly recommended for kids to help, too!! Thanks a bunch!!

This is a wonderful ice cream recipe. I used my 1-qt. ice cream freezer and it worked very well. This ice cream stays relatively soft in the freezer (if there's any left over, that is) so you don't have to get it out ahead of time to let it soften. DELICIOUS! (Update: I tried it today with caramel sauce instead of chocolate -- scrumptious. Can't wait to try strawberry ice cream topping -- or even . . . well the choices are endless now.)
