A sweet and tasty summer treat. This warm-weather Blueberry Ice Cream dessert features native blueberries, and is the perfect snack to ring in the warmer weather. Please read your user manual for your KitchenAid before attempting to make this recipe.
Ingredients
- 4 cups of fresh blueberries, washed, and frozen
- 1 quart of heavy cream
- 8 ounces of sweetened, condensed milk
- 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract
How to Make It
This recipe relies on the KitchenAid Stand Mixer attachment to make the magic happen. You could use any ice cream maker, but this recipe was only tried in this machine so I cannot make any guarantees. However, you could always just freeze the batter for an icier dessert that is less elastic.
- Place your quart of cream in the freezer for 15 minutes to chill it.
- After 15 minutes, take it out of the freezer, and add all your ingredients to a large bowl; mix well. You can use your stand mixer bowl or a separate one if you prefer.
- Add your mixture into maker or KitchenAid until it reaches soft serve consistency- about 30 minutes.
- We usually have to place ours in the freezer for an additional 2 hours to reach hard consistency.
- Enjoy with a spoon, on a cone, or with a piece of pie.
Tips for Making
Using fresh blueberries that are then frozen provides a sweet, and delicious flavor. I am sure you could use frozen blueberries but they might be tart.
Make sure your KitchenAid stand mixer attachment is frozen for at least 24 hours before trying this recipe. If the bowl is not frozen it will not create the consistency needed.
This frozen recipe has a icier consistency and is not an rich and creamy as store-bought varieties.
Store in a freezer-safe container until it is your desired hardness.
How to Freeze Blueberries
Wash, and pat dry fresh blueberries.
Scatter them on a baking sheet and freeze until frozen- about 2 hours.
Place berries in a bag and mark the cup size/weight for future reference.
Your family should really enjoy this homemade blueberry ice cream because it is so creamy, and delicious! Plus making it in the KitchenAid made it a breeze!

Hi, could I use fresh blueberries as I wouldn’t fancy whole ones!
I tried doing this recipe with my Kitchen Aid Ice cream attachments. All I got was a huge mess. I was confused, being a novice, to ice cream making and your directions say Place your mixture into your ice cream maker or KitchenAid until it reaches soft serve consistency- about 30 minutes. For the KitchenAid appliance, I know because I called their hotline, the attachments must be attached and you need to turn on the mixer on Stir before adding the ingredients into the freezer bowl. The attachments should be spinning before the mix go in the bowl. I put the mix in and then turned it to stir, got a clicking noise, mixture went everywhere and the attachment in the bowl would not move. Hope this helps the next person so they don’t have to throw out all the ingredients and mop a floor like I had to :)
Sorry to hear this, but it is out of my control if you didn’t read your operating manual. This is a recipe once you’re familiar with your unit.
