It all started with having some extra heavy whipping cream left over from all the Christmas cooking; it ended with a heavenly Cherry Almond Amaretto No-Churn Ice Cream. The family voted and it was unanimous. Cherry Almond Amaretto No-Churn Ice Cream was their favorite! You can’t make it any simpler. You take a can of cherry pie filling, add some almonds along with the amaretto liqueur in some heavy whipping cream and you have a dessert your family and friends will applaud. You don’t need any special equipment! A mixer and a freezer is all that’s required to have an outstanding frozen dessert. This recipe has been updated from the original December 2015 in order to provide a better experience for our readers. Last update December 2018.
No Churn Ice-Cream is an easy frozen dessert
I’m almost embarrassed to admit how very easy this is to put together.
Almost . . . but not quite.
How can I keep this very delicious ice cream to myself? And really, who has to know how very easy a dessert this is? After all, it’s just between friends, right??
No- Churn Ice Cream is versatile
I had another no-churn ice cream I’d made around Thanksgiving that I’d planned to post. But after tasting this rich, creamy dessert, I knew that I had to hurry and share this recipe.
This dessert is a delightful addition during the Christmas season.
In fact, I think Cherry Almond Amaretto No-Churn Ice Cream would even make an elegant Valentine’s Day dessert — just drizzle a little chocolate on top if you want to make it even more special. Yum!
Cherry Almond Amaretto No-Churn Ice Cream has few ingredients
Are you ready for all of the ingredients? Here goes:
- one can of cherry pie filling,
- one can of sweetened condensed milk,
- shaved almonds,
- heavy whipping cream,
- almond extract,
- and a splash of amaretto liqueur.
That’s it!
I will write out the directions, but heavens, it’s so easy.
I thought the beautiful Cherry Almond Amaretto No-Churn Ice Cream is perfect for this Holiday Season or how about Valentine’s Day.
If you are feeling adventurous more no-churn ice cream recipes.

Catherine says
November 25, 2018 at 3:40 pmMarisa your ice cream looks beautiful with the cherries and I bet it tastes fantastic! What a fabulous combination of flavors…I would love a scoop! XO
Natalie says
November 25, 2018 at 3:21 pmThis is my kind a treat. I love cherry amaretto combo. To bad it’s so cold now but I will pin this recipe to give it a try when weather get warmer.
Catalina says

Tracy says
November 25, 2018 at 11:28 amNo churn is the best! These flavors were perfect together. My daughter asked me to make it again!
Dan Zehr says
November 25, 2018 at 10:01 amNow this, this is the real deal. I love the idea of combining amaretto with cherries! Divine!
Veena Azmanov says
November 25, 2018 at 1:52 amCherry ice cream has got to be one of my favorite ice creams. Love that you added amaretto. And love that this is a no-churn. These no-churn ice-creams sure are the best invention ever.
Noel Lizotte says
November 24, 2018 at 4:55 pmI love no churn ice creams! I keep adding varieties to my recipe box, because I can’t get enough! This is so seasonal, perfect for the holidays!

Karyl Henry says
November 24, 2018 at 2:26 pmAll kinds of my favorite ingredients in one recipe! This looks so delicious, and I love that it’s no-churn.
Gloria says
November 24, 2018 at 1:46 pmLove how we can use this during the holidays. There is always someone that would love some ice cream. If you leave out the alcohol, this is great for kids too. Always a great option for a quick dessert with some Christmas cookies. ENJOY!!
Lisa says
November 8, 2018 at 7:39 amThe simplicity of this gorgeous pink ice cream is mind boggling — and that can of cherry pie filling (my personal favorite) is calling my name. I’ve made cherry amaretto ice cream before –making a custard, chilling it, pulling out the ice cream maker and churning. It’s not a quick process, so I really appreciate this oh-so-much-easier method.
Kirsten/Comfortably Domestic says
November 8, 2018 at 12:22 amI’m always on the lookout for no churn ice cream recipes. This one of perfect for the holidays!
Marisa Franca says
November 8, 2018 at 5:23 amHi, Kirsten! This one is definitely a keeper!
Amanda says
November 7, 2018 at 7:01 amCherry Almond Amaretto is one of my favorite flavor combinations! What a great ice cream recipe to serve during the holidays. The color is so pretty and it makes such a lovely presentation for an elegant dessert table. I love that it’s no churn and so easy to make! So convenient for this busy season.
Marisa Franca says
November 8, 2018 at 5:24 amHello, Amanda! It is a great flavor combination. We’re planning on making it for Christmas again.
Dana says
November 5, 2018 at 10:32 amYES! I love homemade ice cream, and cherry + almonds is one of my most favorite flavor pairings in desserts. I don’t know what it is about that combo, but it’s magical. I don’t dig out my ice cream maker often, but this recipe had me. Excellent!
Tracy says
November 4, 2018 at 11:55 pmWow yes no churn ice cream for the WIN! You know, I always forget about it too – especially when I find myself with extra heavy cream! I need to remember it next time I find myself with the cream going to waste – no excuses now!
Debra says
November 4, 2018 at 8:09 pmWhat? No churning, no ice cream maker needed? I’m in! Love how beautiful this looks and I can’t believe how simple it is to make with easy ingredients too. Would be awesome to include on the Thanksgiving dessert menu.
Courtney Lopez says
November 4, 2018 at 6:20 pmThese flavors are absolutely divine. I love cherry almond. I’m going to make this along with some biscotti for our Thanksgiving desserts!
Stef says
November 4, 2018 at 6:11 pmThat’s SO easy! It’s nice to have a super easy recipe to turn to for dessert – especially around the holidays. It would be great with so many different pie fillings. Now, I’m getting ideas!
Carmy says
November 3, 2018 at 1:31 pmI love no churn ice cream! I alway have ice cream in my freezer and it makes life so much easier when you don’t need to churn to make ice cream! Cherry and almond sound like an amazing flavour combination.
Tina says
November 3, 2018 at 9:45 amThis really does sound like the perfect Christmas treat! My favorite time of year to eat ice cream is actually when it’s cold out because it gives me a reason to snuggle up in my blanket more. Chocolate syrup would definitely make this easy recipe over the top yummy!
Traci says
November 2, 2018 at 9:51 amWhat a brilliant use for cherry pie filling AND for amaretto! They’re a match made in heaven. Love the use of shaved almonds here too. This recipe is going down as one of the easiest, most unique ice creams, in my book. Thanks for sharing with us!
Tina says
November 1, 2018 at 3:24 pmOh my gosh, this looks fantastic and it’s so easy. I love this, I didn’t know you could do this without churning. I bet my daughter would be all over this. I’m going to sent this to her. Maybe I can get her to make some for me;P
Swathi says
October 31, 2018 at 8:58 amI love this ice you made with canned cherry pie filling. lovely color, sure my kids will love it, I need to try it .
Sarah says
October 30, 2018 at 5:06 pmI do a cherry, almond, amaretto sauce for fish sometimes.. so I KNOW those flavors are perfect together! And wow- I could eat a whole bowl of this. (Or two!) I love how easy it is to make- YUM!
Catherine says
October 30, 2018 at 4:55 pmI love homemade ice cream made like this…it’s so easy and so delicious! This is a perfect idea for the holidays. I’m not too big on peppermint so I really love the combination of cherries and amaretto. Brings me back to my childhood! XO
Veena Azmanov says
October 30, 2018 at 11:53 amOh, you had me at cherries and then you threw in the amaretto. LOVE this Marisa. I cannot wait to try this version. I love how simple and easy this is.
Mirlene says
October 30, 2018 at 10:12 amThis is the perfect dessert to serve after a dinner party with close friends and family. Plus with the hint of alcohol is genius!
Lauren Vavala says
October 30, 2018 at 7:29 amAmaretto in ice cream – brilliant!! It’s my favorite liquor and a couple years ago, my fiance bought me a HUGE bottle. I haven’t even opened it because I haven’t worked my way through the previous big bottle he bought me lol…..I can’t wait to try it in this ice cream!
Kylee from Kylee Cooks says
October 29, 2018 at 11:33 pmBoozy dessert? CHECK!! No churn? CHECK!! THis is a winner on so many levels.
Noel Lizotte says
October 29, 2018 at 7:23 pmI love no churn ice creams! This combination of flavors makes me think of New Year’s Eve! I’m going to save this recipe to serve at the midnight buffet!
Gloria says
October 29, 2018 at 2:27 pmWe tend not to eat a lot of ice cream in the cold months. This, however, sounds delicious for the upcoming holiday season. You can never go wrong with alcohol in ice cream….I will just have to make an extra batch for the kids.
Dan Zehr says
October 29, 2018 at 1:58 pmI want to eat your ice cream recipe every day! Looks really tasty. This recipe is really unique. Incredibly beautiful presentation. Of course I want to try. Thanks.
Claudia Lamascolo says
October 29, 2018 at 10:15 amI actually have everything in the house to make this today and I cant wait to try it. This has everything in it I love. I am chilling the bowls and beaters as I type this LOL omg heavenly recipe thank you!
Gloria says
September 15, 2018 at 1:03 pmWell you can’t get this flavour in the store that is for sure. Ice cream with alcohol sounds like a plan to me….just make sure the kids don’t get into it LOL! This would be great because it is HOT HOT HOT here this weekend. No-churn is the best ice cream…no fancy equipment needed.
Susie says
December 14, 2017 at 4:58 pmHi Marisa, You can’t go wrong when you have amaretto and cherry in the same recipe……so yummy! As for your question about Christmas gift wrapping with theme……Yes, I’ve been doing that since my high school years….What a flashback😊seems like yesterday. Now, I select a new Christmas wrap ( color coordinated) every year for each person…..No more name tags!
When is your next video? Wish we lived closer so we could Christmas bake together😊. My grandsons remind me often it won’t be long before we can start traditional gingerbread house and gingerbread men.
Marisa Franca says
December 17, 2017 at 8:02 amHi, Susie! That’s something I’ve always wanted to do — make gingerbread houses. What a great tradition for you and those boys!! We’d love to see a picture of them. Love and hugs!
Madi says
December 9, 2017 at 9:46 amThis ice cream has such an incredible combination of flavors! I can’t wait to try it!

Becca says

Janet Vinyard says

Bintu - Recipes From A Pantry says
October 28, 2016 at 5:02 amWhat a simple ice cream, and it sounds so perfect. Love the mix of cherry and almond, like a cherry bakewell tart!
Marisa Franca says
October 28, 2016 at 7:05 amThank you, Bintu! No-churn ice cream is such an easy dessert to make.
Dahn @savor the Best says
October 27, 2016 at 11:46 pmwow I love these flavors and I can’t say no to ice cream
Marisa Franca says
October 28, 2016 at 7:04 amWe understand. Knowing it’s in the freezer is too much of a temptation.
Laura | Wandercooks says
October 27, 2016 at 11:26 pmWow Marisa that sounds heavenly. Love your photos too, just wish we could reach through the screen and eat a scoop right now! Definitely saving this one to the Christmas recipes list – assuming we can wait that long to try it! 😛
Marisa Franca says
October 28, 2016 at 7:04 amHi, Laura! It is so good so when we make no-churn ice cream we make sure that we are going to visit our kids and grandkids. Ice cream in our freezer is such a temptation! 🙂
Heather @Boston Girl Bakes says
October 27, 2016 at 7:01 pmOh I love these flavors together! And no churn totally up my alley 🙂
Marisa Franca says
October 27, 2016 at 7:04 pmI agree, Heather! Hubby thought preventing us from purchasing an ice cream maker would keep us safe from the temptation of ice cream. HAH! Where there’s a will there’s a way 🙂
Lisa at celebrate creativity says
May 18, 2016 at 8:36 amMarisa, this is so pretty. I love how you styled everything. The little bowls and greenery in a bed of flowy fabric. Lovely.
I’ve never tried “no-churn” ice cream before so, I’m intrigued.
Hope you have a wonderful day.
Marisa Franca says
May 18, 2016 at 11:24 amThank you Lisa! Oh my! You have to try no-churn ice cream. The flavors are endless and you can make it in no time at all. I’m sure you can dream up some delicious variations.
Simply Suzannes at Home says
January 10, 2016 at 6:18 pmDear Marisa,
Happy New Year, friend!
I hope that you had a wonderful holiday with your family!
I can only imagine all the amazing dishes that came out of your kitchen!
It feels like it’s been weeks since I’ve visited. Sigh. My computer FREAKED out when my husband downloaded the new Windows 10 . . . and decided NOT to function for several days. So happy that it’s working again!
Ok, so let’s talk cherry almond amaretto no churn ice cream! I’m obsessed!! It looks and sounds AMAZING!
I can’t wait to try this version!
You’ve inspired me . . . I would LOVE to try a version with maraschino cherries and chocolate chunks! That’s an all-time favorite combination of mine :0)
So happy to have found your no churn ice cream recipe!
Sending hugs,
Suzanne
Marisa Franca says
January 11, 2016 at 4:19 pmI’m glad you’re back. I thought you might be away — so it was just the pesky computer. When the computer works it’s wonderful but oh boy, when they don’t, nothing gets done 🙁 I know how much you like vanilla beans — I’m on a quest to find vanilla paste. Have you heard of it? Pastry chefs use it. Hugs right back!!
Karen (Back Road Journal) says
January 9, 2016 at 2:10 pmI’m so happy to have found your delicious recipe for no churn ice cream. I don’t have an ice cream machine and it’s not needed for your dessert.
Marisa Franca says
January 9, 2016 at 2:47 pmHi Karen!! I’m glad you found it too. You will love making it and there are countless variations that you can create. Let me know how you like it and what kind you made 🙂
Leslie @ Bessie Bakes says
January 5, 2016 at 6:21 pmAmaretto and almond sounds incredible with cherries! I love the no-churn technique. I’ve never tried it, but I will have to give this recipe a try. Sounds amazing!!
Marisa Franca says
January 6, 2016 at 4:02 pmThank you Leslie — it is so easy you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it earlier 🙂
Neli @ Delicious Meets Healthy says
January 5, 2016 at 12:27 amgorgeous!! and the flavor combinations sound amazing!! love it!
Rosemary @anitalianinmykitchen says
December 31, 2015 at 12:30 pmThis looks and sounds so good Marisa, and you have convinced me to try no churn ice cream. A very Happy New Year to you and your family.
Ciao Chow Linda says
December 29, 2015 at 11:43 amI never would have guessed cherry pie filling could be used to make this delicious looking ice cream. I’ll have to remember this one for the future.
Marisa Franca says
December 29, 2015 at 7:36 pmI’m going to tell you a secret — You know that recipe I mentioned in the post about publishing first?? Well, it was a Thanksgiving type recipe and I used Apple Caramel Pie Filling!! It was great!! I used Whipped cream vodka for the alcohol part and I added apple pie spice and some vanilla extract. Our boys loved it!! I would have used just a teensy bit more apple pie spice. I love using the pie filling!! Anyway, this is between you and me 😉
nazima says
December 29, 2015 at 11:39 amthe flavours in this ice cream sound so wonderful. And a lovely low fuss method to make it!
Marisa Franca says
December 29, 2015 at 7:37 pmIt is such a great dessert to make and no-one needs to be the wiser how easy it is.
Ali @ Home & Plate says
December 29, 2015 at 10:02 amThis ice cream is right up my alley. It’s the perfect adult dessert and perfect for this time of the year. Love the addition of amaretto. Looks amazing!
Marisa Franca says
December 29, 2015 at 7:38 pmThe amaretto does take it over the edge — we do love the taste.
Platter Talk says
December 29, 2015 at 9:21 amThis is a wonderful frozen treat idea and the potential flavor combinations is endless; great post!!!
Marisa Franca says
December 29, 2015 at 7:39 pmYou are so right about the endless possibilities. We’ve only just begun!! What would you like to try??
Wendi Spraker says
December 29, 2015 at 6:49 amMarisa, that stuff is almost too pretty to eat! I made some no churn icecream this past summer and was really shocked at how easy it was to make and how good it actually tasted! I know this has to be EXCELLENT! My hubby and I made and canned some cherry pie filling this summer – so, I might make your recipe for Valentines Day as you suggest. Perfect idea! Thanks!
Marisa Franca says
December 29, 2015 at 7:41 pmI am so glad you’re going to try it. Wow!! I’m impressed! You made your own cherry pie filling. You’ll have to tell me how you did it. 🙂
Sharee says
December 28, 2015 at 9:08 pmYou put three of my favorite ingredients together and I love it! Pinning!
Marisa Franca says
December 29, 2015 at 6:05 amGreat!! I know you’ll like the ice cream.
Chiara says
December 28, 2015 at 5:49 pmche delizia Marisa, posso venire a mangiarla con te ? Mi piacerebbe davvero poter essere più vicina…Buona fine anno e felice 2016, un abbraccio grande !
Marisa Franca says
December 28, 2015 at 7:08 pmChiara, you may come and eat with us anytime!! Are you ever coming to the US!!?? I would love to see you. I am still planning on coming back to Trieste — both my cousins and family live there. I wish we did live closer.Have a wonderful New Year and I’m planning on writing more in Italian in 2016. Abbracci Forti!!
Donna says
December 28, 2015 at 4:18 pmYum, this sounds delicious, and so so easy!! I love recipes that come together from leftovers and turn out to be fantastic 🙂
Marisa Franca says
December 28, 2015 at 5:00 pmI know, we do too! We didn’t want to freeze the whipping cream or make butter out of it. This turned out fantastic. Thank you for commenting and have a Happy New Year!
Tina Marie says
December 28, 2015 at 10:45 amSounds amazingly delicious. I can’t wait to try this recipe.
Marisa Franca says
December 28, 2015 at 5:01 pmLet me know how it turns out — Felice Anno Nuovo.
Jovina Coughlin says
December 28, 2015 at 10:35 amLove the combination of cherry and almond. This ice cream looks like a suburb dessert and looks easy to make.
Marisa Franca says
December 28, 2015 at 5:03 pmIt does seem like cherry, almonds, and amaretto are a natural. Hope you had un Buon Natale!! We are busy packing for that long flight of the snowbirds 🙂
Tracy @ Served from Scratch says
December 28, 2015 at 9:50 amOooh I love the flavors of amaretto and cherry! This ice cream sounds delish!
Marisa Franca says
December 28, 2015 at 5:04 pmIt certainly was delicious and believe me all I had was a little taste — that wasn’t enough!! 🙁
Ambra Sancin says
December 28, 2015 at 6:40 amSounds great. I only discovered no-churn ice-creams a few years ago. Where had they been all my life?
Marisa Franca says
December 28, 2015 at 8:00 amWe just recently discovered it too and I can’t believe the flavors you can come up with. Hubby didn’t want to purchase an ice cream maker so we wouldn’t be tempted to make ice cream. Heh, heh, heh. We don’t need an ice cream maker to make delicious ice cream.
Razena | Tantalisemytastebuds.com says
December 27, 2015 at 11:45 pmCherry and almond ice cream is my all time favorite. My heart sank when I saw amaretto liquer because I have no idea what to substitute for it when I make this… Any suggestions would be welcome?
Marisa Franca says
December 28, 2015 at 7:58 amThe amaretto adds flavor to the ice cream as well as helping to prevent it from freezing too hard. If you don’t want to add alcohol to the ice cream you can substitute Italian soda syrup in the amaretto flavor or instead of just 1 teaspoon of almond extract, add 2 teaspoons of the extract. That should get you the wonderful almond flavor. Give it a taste and add more of the extract if you like a stronger taste.
