This Jammie Dodger Ice Cream is a creamy vanilla no churn ice cream, swirled with raspberry jam, white chocolate chips and plenty of Jammie Dodger biscuits! It's no churn, which means you don't need an ice cream maker to make it. All that's needed is an electric mixer (or a very strong arm!) and a freezer to enjoy a few scoops of Jammie Dodger heaven!
Ingredient Tips & Equipment Information
- You will need sweetened condensed milk for this recipe, do not use evaporated milk as it will affect the final result.
- The best kind of cream to use is double cream, which has around a 48% fat content. As long as you are using a high fat content cream that will thicken when whisked, then this will not greatly affect the final result. Using single cream, or a lower fat cream, will affect the final result.
- It’s best to use an electric hand mixer, or a stand mixer, to whisk up the double cream. It will take much longer by hand and require a lot of work!
- I used raspberry jam, but strawberry will work well too.
- Although I provide cup measurements, I highly recommend weighing your ingredients out using digital kitchen scales*. It is the most accurate way to measure ingredients and will ensure the best results. Digital scales are very low cost and can be purchased for around £12 ($16.50) .
- For teaspoon (tsp) and tablespoon (tbsp) measurements, please use measuring spoons* and not the type of spoons you eat with. Again this will ensure accuracy and provide the best results.

How to make Jammie Dodger Ice Cream
In a mixing bowl, mix together the condensed milk and vanilla extract. In another mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to whip up the double cream until it's thick.
Fold the double cream into the condensed milk, the gently fold in the chopped biscuits and white chocolate chips. Then very slightly mix in the jam and pour the ice cream into a container. Decorate the top with more jam, biscuits, and some freeze dried raspberries.

What are Jammie Dodgers?
Jammie Dodgers are a British sandwich biscuit (a cookie) with a raspberry jam filling. They have such a fun appearance - with a splash effect on the biscuit and heart shaped hole revealing the jam in the middle. They are also the most popular children's biscuit in the UK.
Can you use evaporated milk instead of condensed milk?
No, you must use condensed milk for this recipe to work.
Can you use heavy cream or whipping cream?
The best kind of cream to use is double cream, which has around a 48% fat content. As long as you are using a cream that will thicken when whisked, then this will not greatly affect the recipe. Do not use single cream, as it will affect the final result.
What container should you use?
I used a 2lb loaf tin purely for aesthetic purposes, however this recipe makes a little extra than fits in the tin. I would recommend a 2.5L plastic tupperware container with a lid, to prevent freezer burn. Or you can split the mixture between smaller containers if you don't have one big one.
Do you need an electric mixer to make this recipe?
While you could whisk up the cream by hand, it will take a long time and be rather tiring! Therefore I do recommend using an electric mixer. It doesn't have to be an expensive stand mixer, a budget handheld electric whisk will do the job too.
Can this recipe be made gluten free or dairy free?
Jammie Dodgers contain gluten, so you will need to swap them for a gluten free alternative. Both Tesco and Asda offer a gluten free jam sandwich biscuits in their free from sections. Please do check the labels of any products you use to avoid cross contamination, and especially if you are serving to someone with an allergy or intolerance. Unfortunately this recipe cannot be made dairy free.
More tips for making the Jammie Dodger Ice Cream:
- I used raspberry jam, but you could use strawberry too, or any other flavour you prefer
- I used both mini and regular sized Jammie Dodgers on top, but you can use all mini or all regular if it's all you can get hold of
- It’s best to use an electric hand mixer, or a stand mixer, to whisk up the double cream. It will take much longer by hand and require a lot of work!
