Whip the Cream:
In a large chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, then continue whipping until firm peaks form. Do not overwhip.
Add Sweetened Condensed Milk:
Gently fold the sweetened condensed milk into the whipped cream using a spatula. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Fold in Raisins and Extras:
Add the soaked raisins to the creamy mixture. If using crushed biscuits or nuts, fold them in now for added texture and flavor.
Freeze:
Pour the mixture into a loaf pan or freezer-safe container lined with parchment paper. Smooth the top and cover with plastic wrap or a lid. Freeze for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
Serve:
Once frozen, slice or scoop into bowls. Top with extra raisins, cookie crumbs, or a drizzle of honey if desired. Serve immediately.
Tips & Variations:
Flavor twist: Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for a warm spice note.
Fruit swaps: Try chopped dates, dried apricots, or candied cherries instead of raisins.
Layer it: Alternate layers of the creamy mixture and crushed cookies to create a frozen parfait.
Storage: Keeps for up to two weeks in the freezer. Wrap tightly to prevent freezer burn.
