Jello Ice Cream all started with an idea that I wasn’t sure would even work. Boy was I wrong! This sherbet-like homemade ice cream (that can be made without an ice cream maker) is, by far, one of the BEST desserts I’ve ever made!

JELLO ice cream! This easy recipe shows you how to make it with or without an ice cream maker and only 4 ingredients!

Jello Ice Cream

Not only is this better than any rainbow sherbet I’ve ever had, it was simple to make and you can even customize the flavors using whatever Jello variety you like.

Ingredients

Ingredients:

  1. Junket Ice Cream Mix in Very Vanilla – I found mine above the Jello mix at my grocery store or you can get it HERE. This mix makes vanilla ice cream and you can add anything to it!
  2. Whole milk – not lighter milk or non-fat
  3. Heavy whipping cream
  4. Powder Jello flavors – Berry Blue, Orange, Raspberry, Lime (or whatever flavors you desire!)

Supplies:

  • Kitchen Aid Mixer and coordinating frozen ice cream-making bowl (optional)
  • 1 large mixing bowl
  • 4 smaller glass bows
  • 1 sealable container to store the ice cream in the freezer

Instructions:

Place 4 small glass bowls in the freezer for about 30 minutes. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the Junket Ice Cream Mix, whole milk, and heavy whipping cream. Transfer the mixture to the KitchenAid ice cream-making bowl. Mix on low speed for 25-30 minutes until ice cream forms.

Recipe Tip

It’s important to have small frozen bowls to work with when it comes time to add the Jello later on!

Once the ice cream has formed, remove the small bowls from the freezer. Separate the ice cream evenly into them. Sprinkle powdered Jello flavors over the ice cream and gently mix with a spoon until fully combined.

Recipe Tip

Try to do this as fast as you can to prevent the ice cream from melting (which is why the frozen bowls are necessary).

Transfer all of the Jello ice cream into one larger container that can be sealed (as pictured above).

Gently use the back of a spoon or a spatula to swirl the different Jello ice cream flavors and layers together (as pictured below).
