Easy No-Cook Vanilla Ice Cream
A recipe that does not require a stove. I love this when I need a quick vanilla ice cream base. Sometimes I add a tablespoon of malted milk powder in addition to the powdered milk, but I took it out of the recipe so as not to scare people away with so many powders! For the regular milk powder, I used Bob's Red Mill brand which has a really clean dairy flavor.
