- 1 cup heavy cream cold

- ½ cup vanilla wafers crushed
Instructions
- In a large bowl combine the milk, cream, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract.

- Spoon a layer of the ice cream mixture into your ice cream container, layer with several spoonfuls of the thawed whipped topping, then a layer of vanilla wafer crumbles. Continue creating layers until all the ice cream is used.
- Cover the container and place in the freezer.
- Allow to freeze for at least 4-6 hours. Once frozen, allow to sit at room temperature for just a couple of minutes to make scooping easier.

Notes
- Bananas: Use ripe bananas for a sweeter, more powerful banana flavoring.
- Vanilla Wafers: Nila wafers are a popular option, use a gluten free version if needed. Here's a recipe for Homemade Vanilla Wafers if you want to keep everything homemade.
- Frozen Whipped Topping: Using a frozen whipped topping ensures that we keep a light and fluffy texture in our ice cream, it's used to make layers and isn't mixed into the ice cream itself. Truwhip is a great option that is store-bought but made with real ingredients and can be found in most markets.
