Woman makes Mr Whippy ice cream for £2.10 with two ingredients - which tastes 'exactly the same'

No argument needed - Mr Whippy is the best ice cream to ever exist on the planet.

Nothing beats the taste or experience of divulging into the popular product on a cone - and possibly a 99 chocolate flake on top - from the local ice cream van.

It's no wonder that a video has rocketed into internet stardom after sharing a budget-friendly hack on how to get "exactly the same" for less - costing just £2.10 for a full tub.

Emmah Ord shared the clip on TikTok - which has already surpassed 1.3 million views to date - in which she makes the popular frozen treat using just two ingredients.

The social media star tried the popular "rumour" first-hand by using a two product recipe - condensed milk and double cream.

At popular supermarket retailer Sainsbury's, condensed milk can be purchased for just £1.05 - and double cream can be purchased for exactly the same price.

Emmah thought that it was only right that she gives the life-changing life hack a go - and it certainly didn't disappoint.

"Rumour has it that you can make Mr Whippy ice cream using condensed milk and double cream - so obviously, I'm going to give this a go," she said.

"I'm going to whip it until it goes a bit stiff.

"Then I'm going to add the condensed milk - I have no idea how much I'm going to do so.. I'm going to put the whole load in."

As a personal touch of choice, Emmah chose to add chocolate drops into the mix to give it that extra flavour.

"I've got this huge bag of chocolate drops so I'm going to use these," she added.

"Look at that, doesn't that just look smashing?"

Whilst several fans rushed to the comment section to praise the budget-friendly hack and tasteful ice cream - several were keen for Emmah to share the sweat treat's ultimate taste test.

"I can't wait to see if this works," one user penned.

A second added: "Cannot wait to see the tasting x."

Ahead of the reveal, Emmah responded: "It's sooo good never buying Mr Whippy ever again now I can make it."

Finally falling to everyone's demands, she shared the taste test video - and answered the long-awaited question - does it taste the same as Mr Whippy?

"We've already been eating it, it's absolutely amazing," she gushed. "It doesn't go rock hard!

"It tastes exactly the same as Mr Whippy - and I did put chocolate drops in to flavour it."

However, the TikTok star oozed sarcasm and said: "Like you need flavour in it anyway when you've got a full tin?!"
