Super Creamy Yummy Vanilla Ice Cream Recipe

This is a simple and easy to make, no-cooking recipe with the most delicious vanilla ice cream you have ever tasted. The recipe for super creamy yummy ice cream uses heavy cream, half-and-half or milk with a higher percentage milk fat, such as whole milk. If the ice cream is made with a lower percentage of milk fat, it will become icy. Adding Tara gum is the secret ingredient. It prevents ice crystals from forming all together and results in an extraordinarily smooth mouthfeel.
