Ingredients
Scale
Ice Cream Base
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Add-ins and Toppings
- 3 Little Debbie Honey Buns, chopped into bite-sized pieces
- Optional: honey drizzle for topping
Instructions
- Whip the Cream: In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to beat the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form, ensuring the cream holds its shape well for a creamy texture.
- Mix Condensed Milk Mixture: In a separate bowl, stir together the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until thoroughly combined, infusing the base with sweet and warm cinnamon notes.
- Combine Mixtures: Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture carefully to retain the fluffiness, blending them into a smooth, creamy ice cream base.
- Add Honey Buns: Fold in the chopped Little Debbie Honey Buns pieces, reserving a few pieces to sprinkle on top of the ice cream for texture and presentation.
- Freeze: Pour the ice cream mixture into a loaf pan or any freezer-safe container. Smooth the surface evenly and sprinkle the remaining honey bun pieces on top. Cover tightly.
- Set: Freeze the mixture for at least 6 hours or overnight until it firms up to an ice cream consistency.
- Serve: Scoop the frozen honey bun ice cream into bowls or cones and optionally drizzle with honey to enhance the sweet bakery flavor before serving.
Notes
- For extra crunch and easier chopping, freeze the honey buns slightly before cutting.
- Swirling in caramel or cinnamon syrup before freezing adds a delicious bakery-style twist.
