Homemade Ube Ice Cream (Purple Yam Ice Cream)

RecipesFILIPINO RECIPESSep 2Written By Malu Bonifacio

I always miss Filipino ice cream. Once in a while, our family buys ice cream such as mango, ube and mantecado at Filipino stores.

After a year of baking and cooking different desserts and snacks, I asked myself: Why buy ice cream when you can make one? This ube ice cream has only 3 ingredients: whipping cream, condensed milk and of course halayang ube.

You can choose to use a whisk but I recommend to use a hand mixer or a stand mixer instead so you can make it faster and easier.
