Nigella's No-Churn Matcha Ice Cream (with added Oreos) recipe
Jump to recipeAn incredibly easy, perfectly balanced green tea ice cream. The Oreos are my addition, borrowed from the many Matcha Oreo McFlurries I ate in Singapore.

Matcha is my favourite flavour of ice cream so I have no idea why I waited so long to make Nigella's No-Churn Matcha Ice Cream. It’s got just three ingredients and only requires a bit of whisking, plus time to freeze.
I accidentally used the entire 397g tin of condensed milk so the cream (before it became ice cream) was tooth-achingly sweet and I had to buy more double cream to rein it back in. Now there are nearly 2 litres of matcha ice cream in my freezer; the equivalent of 4 tubs of Ben and Jerry’s. It’s really good so I’m not complaining.
I mixed half of the batch with some broken up Oreo biscuits, inspired by the McFlurries I used to eat in Singapore, and I can't recommend this addition enough.
Notes
I use NutriExtracts Japanese Ceremonial Grade Matcha Green Tea Powder (affiliate link). I'm not loyal to this brand; I go for anything that's ceremonial grade and reasonably priced.

Recipe
Nigella's No-Churn Matcha Ice Cream (with added Oreos)
- Prep10m
- Stand12h
- Total12h 10m
Serves: 8
Ingredients
- ½ a 397g tin of condensed milk (150ml)
- 300ml double cream
- 2 tbsp matcha green tea powder
- 5 Oreos (optional)
Method
- Pour ½ of a 397g tin of condensed milk (150ml) into a large bowl and stir. Add 300ml of double cream and whisk until the mixture starts to thicken (I use an electric hand mixer).
- Sieve 2 tablespoons of matcha powder into the mixture and whisk until the cream can hold its shape but is still fairly soft.
- If using, crumble in 3 Oreo biscuits and stir then pour the mixture into a 1 litre container (or 2 x 500ml containers). Crumble the remaining 2 Oreos on top of the mixture.
- Freeze overnight. Take out around 10 minutes before serving and return the ice cream to the freezer promptly. Eat within 1 month.
