Peanut Butter Cup Ice Cream (No Cook, Eggless)
This creamy peanut butter ice cream with chopped peanut butter cups will be your new summer favorite! It’s eggless and no cook, which means you can make the ice cream base in the blender and be on your way to making homemade ice cream.
I love ice cream, but I don’t love leftover egg whites. Most of the time, I end up tossing them.
Yes, I’ve tried freezing them and keeping them in my freezer, but I end up with so many, it’s insane.
I should plan better and incorporate those egg whites into meringue or even breading for baked coconut shrimp.
However, I’m not usually on top of my game like that, so instead I opted to go eggless with my Peanut Butter Cup Ice Cream.
Not only is it great for those with egg allergies (which I don’t have but I know others do), I don’t have to worry about throwing away egg whites. Win win.
Because there are no eggs involved, you don’t have to cook the base either. Just throw everything into a blender then freeze.
Win win win.
This ice cream is so simple to make, it’s almost a joke.
Throw your ingredients into a blender then freeze.
No cooking, no stirring, no wondering what to do with those extra egg whites. Just blend and freeze.
You can use your ice cream maker or you can follow this guide on how to freeze ice cream by hand.
I’m a huge fan of peanut butter cups, so I chopped up a whole bunch and added them when the ice cream was only a few minutes away from being done.

Happy #IceCreamWeek, honey!!! :D
It’s finally here! Happy #icecreamweek !
No churn, no egg ice cream is like heaven. I, too, forgot to process it every hour, and once did it after a nine hour stay in the freezer, and it turned out great. Peanut butter and chocolate, how much better can it get?! Awesome!
Yup, no problems here! I’m glad I can still make ice cream and not have an extra appliance hanging around. Thanks Paula :)

Thanks Ashley!
Uhh..it looks so yummy and that it leads me to lick my computer screen…haha. I really love this one! :)
I licked my screen a few times too haha Thanks Leona!
This ice cream looks perfectly yummy (and how can it not be – it’s peanut butter with peanut butter cups)! I have to admit that I’m one of those people who usually goes with the French ice cream method, but I have done Peanut Butter Ice Cream the easy way and it can be just as delicious. :)
As much as I love making ice cream the traditional way, I wish I could make all ice cream this way. It’s way too easy! Thanks :)
Great recipe. I adore peanut butter cup ice cream. So good. Love your photos.
Thank you Kim :)
What beautiful photography you have. Love the ice cream flavors too, nice work. :)
Thanks Renee!
That looks awesomeeeeeeeeee! Yum x LOTS
Agreed! Thank you :)
Love that you can make this without eggs
Me too! I have so many egg whites in the freezer, I could make a dozen angel food cakes LOL
Oh lord what have you done,,,, all that dripping lush chocolate ice cream just starting to melt and it needs to be licked at once not to lose any….mmmmmmm oh by the way do you have a recipe for fresh vanilla ice cream… a quick yes or no will do i would hate to stop you making more and more…….ha ha
I do, but I haven’t posted it. It’s a recipe where you use some egg yolks, but making it is only a few steps. If you still need it, I can email it to you.
These photos are gorgeous and you’ve got me sold on the “no need for an ice cream maker” method of making the good stuff. I’ve been scouring the internet for recipes that don’t require one (as much as I love buying new kitchen gadgets, I draw the line there!). I can’t wait to try this.
Thanks for sharing this recipe! I never thought I could throw something like this together. I actually used lactose free milk so mine didn’t set up as well as it would have had I used heavy cream. But it’s much better than the bland lactose free ice cream from the store! I hope you don’t mind if I share this recipe with my dairy free alterations on my blog.
I made this a few days ago, and WOW. It’s better than store-bought stuff, of course, and this would be so easy to experiment with other flavors. Thanks for the recipe!!
Okay I’m new to this, I don’t understand the cooling/freezing part…about how long will it take to be “frozen” ice cream consistency? Yeah I get that it varies from freezer to freezer, but are we talking half an hour or overnight? Also, how long will this keep? I want to make some for an event but I want to make it far enough in advance to try it myself, so in case I screw it up I can give it another go…but if it turns out right the first time, why re-make it?!
For best results, freeze overnight. I think at the very least it’s 4 hours if you’re in a hurry, but even then I still say overnight. As for how long it lasts, it can last a few months (sources say 2-4 months). However, this will highly depend on how you store it. If there is a lot of space/air in your container, ice crystals will develop sooner (think freezer burn). You would need to cover the surface w plastic wrap or use a smaller container w little space leftover.
Okay, got it! Thanks a lot! I was thinking of storing it in a mason jar. I’m making it as a gift for someone.
It just looked so delicious that I had to include it in my ice cream round up. Happy Fourth of July!
