Prepare the Oreo Cookies: Crush the Cookies: Start by placing 9 Oreo cookies into a resealable plastic bag. Using a rolling pin or the back of a spoon, crush the cookies into fine crumbs. These crumbs will be mixed into the ice cream base, adding that classic cookies and cream flavor.

Break the Remaining Cookies: Take the remaining 9 Oreo cookies and break them into larger chunks. These chunks will add extra texture and bits of Oreo throughout the ice cream.

Make the Ice Cream Base: Whip the Heavy Cream: Pour the cold heavy cream into a large mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer, whip the cream on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. The cream should be thick and hold its shape but remain smooth.

Incorporate Sweetened Condensed Milk: Gently fold the sweetened condensed milk into the whipped cream. Use a spatula to combine them without deflating the cream too much. This mixture will be the base of your ice cream.

Add Oreo Crumbs: Gently fold in the crushed Oreo crumbs, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the cream mixture.

Assemble the Ice Cream: Fold in Oreo Chunks: Add the broken Oreo chunks to the mixture. Fold them in gently to distribute the chunks throughout the ice cream without over-mixing.

Transfer to a Container: Pour the ice cream mixture into a loaf pan or an airtight container. Smooth the top with a spatula. If desired, sprinkle a few additional Oreo crumbs on top for extra texture and visual appeal.

Freeze the Ice Cream: Chill for 4-6 Hours: Cover the container with a lid or plastic wrap. Place it in the freezer and let the ice cream freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until it is firm and ready to scoop. For best results, freeze overnight.

Serve and Enjoy: Scoop and Serve: Once the ice cream is fully frozen, scoop it into bowls or cones. The creamy texture combined with chunks of Oreo will make each bite a delightful experience.
