No Churn Mango Ice Cream only requires 4 ingredients, comes together in minutes, and there’s no special ice cream making equipment required! These are all things I can get behind in a dessert recipe.
This Mango Ice Cream comes out smooth and creamy, with chunks of deliciously sweet mangos, and an ice cream base that has perfectly balanced flavors of vanilla and mango.
Another no churn ice cream recipe we love is this Key Lime Cookies and Cream Ice Cream recipe!!! Or, if you happen to have clean fresh snow pop over to this Snow Ice Cream recipe!

What Does No Churn Mean?
No Churn means that you do not have to have special ice cream making equipment to make this ice cream.
Traditional ice cream recipes require you to have an ice cream maker to churn the ice cream before it goes in the freezer. A lot of recipes also call for you to make an egg custard before you freeze the mixture, but not with no-churn ice cream.
Ingredients
Here are the 4 easy ingredients you need to get this recipe started:
- Heavy Whipping Cream
- Sweetened Condensed Milk
- Vanilla
- Del Monte Canned Diced Mangos
I always love a recipe that has a simple ingredient list. Especially if all those ingredients are right in my normal grocery store. I do not have time to be hunting down special ingredients like Madagascar vanilla, people!
Del Monte Canned Diced Mangos
Y’all I can’t even! Canned Diced Mangos are a REAL thing. You do not need to peel, slice and dice a mango (which is really hard if you have never done it before!).
You would need to prep about 4 ripe mangos to equal the amount that is in the can.
How to Make No Churn Mango Ice Cream
This Mango Ice Cream recipe comes together SO quickly. The only hard part is waiting for it to freeze!
Using a stand mixer or hand held mixer with a whisk attachment, whip cold heavy whipping cream on medium high speed until you reach firm peaks, that should be about 3-4 minutes.
Pro Tip: Firm peaks is when you pull the whisk out of the whipped cream and it forms a peak with a sharp tip, and holds its shape.
Turn the mixer to medium low speed and mix in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla until it is well incorporated, about 30 seconds.
Drain the liquid (reserving the liquid) from the Del Monte Canned Diced Mangos.
With the mixer on medium low speed add ½ cup of the reserved mango juice to the cream mixture.
Now, by hand, fold in all the diced mangos until they are incorporated evenly thru the cream. You can also reserve a few pieces of mango to decorate the top of the ice cream. See the picture below:
Scrape the Mango Ice Cream mixture into a freezer safe pan. I like to use my metal loaf pan. It freezes well and holds just about all the ice cream mixture. I think I had about ⅓ cup left in the bowl. You know I couldn’t resist and ate the leftover with a spoon! It is DELICIOUS pre-frozen too!
Cover the container of Mango Ice Cream with some plastic wrap and place in the freezer for 6+ hours.
Pro Tip: Put a rubber band around the edge of the pan to keep the plastic wrap in place.
