Crafting this uncomplicated Chocolate Chip Ice Cream results in a velvety, indulgent, and creamy treat, all achievable without the need for an ice cream maker.
Ingredients
- ½ cup sweetened condensed milk
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
- ⅓ cup brown sugar (tightly-packed) – can use regular sugar also
- 2 cups cream (30% to 50% fat)
- ¼ cup chocolate chips – can use sweet, semi sweet or white chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon chocolate chips for placing on top – optional
Instructions
Preparation
- First take all the ingredients and keep them ready.
- Take milk in a pan or in mixing bowl and keep it on the stove top. Heat the milk till lightly hot. No need to boil.
- Place the pan or bowl on the kitchen countertop. Add cocoa powder and whisk till the cocoa powder dissolves in the milk evenly.
- Add condensed milk to this mixture. Combine and mix to get an even mixture.
- Next, add brown sugar and mix again till the sugar has dissolved.
- If the sugar has not dissolved then heat the mixture lightly on a low flame and stir continuously till all the sugar dissolves. Or you can add sugar first and then add condensed milk
- Keep this chocolate mixture aside and allow it to cool to room temperature.
Whipping The Cream
- Take cold cream in a stand mixer and begin to whip it on high speed. You can also use an electric beater to whip the cream.
- Whip till you get stiff peaks. The cream will increase in volume and when you turn the bowl down, the cream should not fall. Or when you take the whipped cream in a spatula or spoon and turn it down, the cream shouldn't fall.
Assembling
- Then, add the chocolate mixture to the whipped cream.
- Now, gently and with light hands, fold the chocolate mixture in the whipped cream. Do not mix, fold it.
- The cream should not lose it peaks or volume and fall flat. So, fold gently and slowly.
Freezing Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
- Now, add the ice cream mixture in a freeze safe container or box.
- You can decorate the top layer of the ice cream with some chocolate chips if you like.
- Close the lid tightly and keep the container or box in the freezer. Freeze for 8 to 9 hours, overnight or till the ice cream is set.
- Before serving, remove the ice cream box from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes. Then, using a scoop remove the ice cream.
- If you are not able to scoop the ice cream easily, then let the ice cream be at room temperature for 5 to 6 minutes.
- Serve Chocolate Chip Ice Cream in bowls or cups. You can also drizzle some chocolate sauce on the ice cream if you prefer.
