Indulge in this rich, creamy chocolate ice cream made right at home—no need for fancy ingredients or equipment. 🍫🍦


Ingredients (Makes about 1 quart):

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 4 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions:

  1. Make the Base:

    • In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cocoa powder, and salt.
    • Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth.
    • Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is hot but not boiling.
  2. Melt the Chocolate:

    • Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the chopped dark chocolate until fully melted and smooth.
  3. Add Cream and Vanilla:

    • Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla extract.
  4. Chill the Mixture:

    • Pour the mixture into a bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until completely chilled (overnight is best).
  5. Churn the Ice Cream:

    • Transfer the chilled mixture to an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  6. Freeze:

    • Once churned, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours for a firmer texture.
  7. Serve:

    • Scoop into bowls or cones and enjoy!

Tips:

  • No Ice Cream Maker?: Pour the mixture into a shallow dish, freeze, and stir every 30 minutes for 3-4 hours to break up ice crystals.
  • Add Mix-ins: Fold in chocolate chips, nuts, or marshmallows after churning for a customized treat.
  • For Extra Intensity: Use espresso powder or a splash of coffee in the base to enhance the chocolate flavor.

Enjoy this luscious Homemade Chocolate Ice Cream—perfect for chocoholics and dessert lovers alike! 🍫✨
