A quick, no churn ice cream with few ingredients is just what you need to lift your spirits during these times. If your bowls and ingredients are pre chilled, it takes less than 10 minutes to make this delicious treat. 
Whipped cream and condensed milk give a perfect base to play around with the flavours of your choosing and therefore is also a perfect party food. Create an assorted topping for your guests and leave them to create flavours on their own. For my son’s birthday, I arranged for an ice-cream buffet and it was a hit with children as well as adults. Some ideas that you can use as well:
- Assorted toppings like:
- Cookie crumbs
- Sugar candies
- Marshmallows
- Sprinkles
- Raisins
- Salty toppings like chips, pretzels etc.
- Sauces:
- My masala chai caramel sauce
- Chocolate sauce
- Strawberry or any other fruit jam thinned out with some water
- Nuts like pecans, walnuts or almonds
- Fruits like cherries, bananas, apple, strawberries…
- Plain or a waffle cone
Mix and match and combine with this basic ice-cream to develop your own flavour. I made tahini ice-cream cause I just love the nuttiness it brings to the basic mix. And when topped with halva, you will not be ashamed to lick your spoon, it is that delicious 🙂

Prepare creamy and nutty no churn Tahini ice cream with only 4 ingredients and then top it with 5 ingredient black sesame halva. Can it get any more simpler?
Ingredients
- For ice-cream:
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup condensed milk
- ¼ cup tahini
- 1 tbsp roasted sesame seeds
- For black sesame halva:
- ½ cup icing sugar
- 3 tbsp tahini paste
- ¼ cup milk powder
- 1 tbsp roasted black sesame seeds
- 1 tsp full fat milk
- Pinch of salt
Method
- For the ice-cream:
- In a pre-chilled metal bowl, whip the heavy cream with an electric mixer on high until it reaches soft peaks.
- Pour the condensed milk to the bowl and whisk again on low until it just combines.
- Lastly, add the toasted sesame seeds and tahini and whip on low till everything comes together.
- Pour the ice cream mix in a freezer safe flat container and cover it with the tight lid.
- Put it in the freezer for overnight.
- For the black sesame halva:
- Sieve icing sugar to remove all lumps.
- In a bowl, combine milk powder, sesame seeds, salt and icing sugar.
- Add tahini paste and milk to the dry mix.
- Using your fingertips, bring the mix together into a soft dough like consistency.
- In a flat container, press the dough and cover it with a tight lid.
- Put in the fridge for an hour.
- When ready to serve, remove the halva from the fridge and break in small dough like pieces to top it on tahini ice-cream.
Notes
- Keep ingredients like heavy cream, condensed milk and bowls for whipping, pre chilled for a quick no churn icecream.
- Do not over whisk the cream as it can split.
- Cream can be whisked by hand as well but would take much longer to achieve soft peaks.

How to make tahini paste Hema?
I use ready made tahini paste available in the market. However, you can make it home too. Dry roast sesame seeds carefully so that they don’t burn. Once roasted in about 3-4 minutes, put them in the grinder with little salt and grind. once they are powdery, add a little oil and grind it in the paste.
