Chocolate Ice Cream Recipe
Chocolate Ice Cream is a rich, creamy, and decadent frozen dessert that is perfect for chocolate lovers. This recipe is a basic recipe for making homemade chocolate ice cream that can be customized with different flavorings and mix-ins.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions:
- In a medium saucepan, combine the cream, milk, sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt. Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is hot but not boiling.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature.
- Once cooled, cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Once chilled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Once churned, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
- Once firm, scoop and serve the chocolate ice cream.
Note: You can adjust the amount of sugar to your liking.
Note: You can also add different flavorings such as nuts, chocolate chips, or coffee to the mixture before churning for added flavor.
Note: You can also make ice cream without an ice cream maker by pouring the chilled mixture into a plastic container and freezing it for 2 hours. Remove it from the freezer and stir it vigorously with a fork or whisk to break up the ice crystals. Repeat this process every 30 minutes for 2-3 hours or until the ice cream is the desired consistency.
