Two ingredient Ice Cream (no special equipment needed)!

I came upon this recipe on a night I was feeling sorry for myself. You know how sometimes you really DO understand, but, well, that doesn't mean that you have to LIKE it?! Home alone, subzero temps – what else is there to do but make something decadent, and why NOT ice cream? You read that right. And no equipment needed, either. Yeah, you can make an insanely rich home-made ICE CREAM with just two ingredients, both of which I happened to have on hand: heavy cream and sweetened condensed milk (the foundation for dulce de leche wink ). Whip them together with some flavoring and chill. That's IT! The idea of coffee flavored ice cream really cheered me up a bit, but I've never heard of coffee 'extract', and didn't have any – a dash of vanilla and about a tablespoon of instant coffee did the trick! Did I mention subzero temps? Plastic wrap on top, and onto the porch it went wink I'm afraid that didn't shorten the chill time as much as I'd hoped – after 2 hours, it hadn't set much. Admitting to “texture” tests every half hour, perfection (@-10F) was achieved in just four hours – the recipe calls for six hours in a normal freezer. If it didn't freeze rock hard in our current weather conditions I doubt that it ever will. So incredibly rich with such a silky mouth feel...
