Making Orange Creamsicle Ice Cream is fun and easy! Just follow these step-by-step instructions:

1. Mix the Cream Base: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and salt until the sugar is completely dissolved.
2. Add Juice and Zest: Stir in the fresh orange juice, orange zest, and vanilla extract until well combined.
3. Chill the Mixture: Cover the mixture and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results. This will enhance the flavors.
4. Prepare Your Ice Cream Maker: Before churning, ensure your ice cream maker’s bowl is properly frozen (usually needs to be frozen for 24 hours).
5. Churn the Ice Cream: Pour the chilled mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, typically about 25-30 minutes, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
6. Freeze the Ice Cream: Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container. Freeze for an additional 4 hours to firm up.
7. Serve: Once fully frozen, scoop your Orange Creamsicle Ice Cream into bowls or cones.

Creating this delightful dessert will be a breeze with these simple steps!
