EASY HOMEMADE CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM RECIPE

Steps:

• In a large bowl with a hand mixer or whisk, stir together milk, cocoa powder, vanilla extract and sea salt until cocoa powder and sugar are dissolved and combined. About 2 minutes. Pour in heavy cream, whip or whisk well, another 2-3 minutes until thickened and no sugar granules can be seen.
• Refrigerate ice cream base for 30 minutes or longer, prior to placing it in the ice cream freezer. By allowing it to hang out in the fridge, it will help it freeze faster, greatly improve the texture AND allows the cocoa powder to get to know the milk and the cream.
• Stir it again one last time -- a nice gentle stir to ensure everything is mixed well. Then pour into your ice cream freezer and follow the directions on your ice cream machine. Mine takes about 20 minutes. Add in any desired mix-ins.
• Ice cream straight from the machine is a soft serve texture. For firm, scoopable ice cream, pour soft ice cream into a chilled (I put my container in the freezer while the ice cream maker is on) loaf pan or container. Press a piece of wax paper onto the ice cream, then cover and tuck in the back of your freezer. The longer you let it hang out, the harder it will be, a couple of hours will yield firm on the edges, soft in the center. Overnight or longer, firm, scoopable ice cream.

KETO CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Add the heavy cream and cocoa powder to a medium saucepan and whisk until the cocoa is fully incorporated. Set over medium heat and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat.
• Whisk together the stevia, vanilla, salt and egg yolks in a large bowl until lightened in color, about 1 minute. Slowly drizzle in 1 cup of the hot cream mixture, whisking, then pour the mixture back into the saucepan and set over medium heat. Cook, stirring continuously with a rubber spatula, until the mixture thickens, coats the back of a spoon and reaches 180 degrees F on a thermometer, about 6 minutes.
• Transfer the custard to a large bowl and stir continuously until the mixture cools to room temperature. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and chill until cold, about 3 hours. (For faster chilling, set the bowl in a larger bowl of ice water and stir until cold.)
• Freeze the mixture in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to a freezer-safe resealable container and freeze until set, at least 1 hour.

GREAT GRAM'S HOMEMADE NO COOK CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM

Steps:

• make instant pudding per package instructions then in a large mixing bowl, combine all other ingredients starting with sugar and moving on to other ingredients from there. NOTE: any flavor instant pudding may be used in place of chocolate, such as french vanilla. If other flavors are used, substitute regular milk for the chocolate milk!
• Add small amounts of chocolate syrup topping or hot fudge until desired chocolate taste is achieved.
• place in 5 to 6 quart ice cream freezer and freeze using the cubed/crushed ice and rock salt layered as freezer container directs. DO NOT ADD ICE AND SALT TO ICE CREAM! (some have tried this at home and it does not work well! lol)
• after freezing to desired consistency, remove the paddle from inside and leave ice cream container inside the ice freezer for about 20 min to cure for more firm ice cream. Ice cream may be removed from container for soft serve use.
• At our house, we make a favorite ice cream buffet using crushed cookies, candy bars, fruits, and other favorite toppings. Makes a great birthday party or other get together even more fun!

NO-CHURN CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM

Steps:

• For the ice cream: Whisk together the condensed milk, cocoa powder, vanilla and salt in a large bowl. The mixture will become very thick; set aside.
• Whip the cream with a mixer on medium-high speed until firm peaks form, about 2 minutes. Fold about 1 cup of the whipped cream into the cocoa mixture with a rubber spatula until combined, then fold the lightened mixture into the whipped cream until well blended. Pour into a chilled 9-by-5-by-3-inch metal loaf pan, and freeze, covered, until thick and creamy, like soft-serve, about 2 hours. Swirl in any desired mix-ins with a spoon. Continue to freeze, covered, until solid and scoopable, about 3 hours more.

CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of just-simmering water, ensuring the bowl doesn't touch the water, or do this in the microwave in 20-second bursts until smooth and glossy. Leave to cool slightly. Pour the cream, condensed milk and vanilla into a second bowl and beat for 3 mins using an electric whisk until slightly thickened and the beaters leave a trail in the mixture when lifted across the bowl. Be careful not to overwhip, as you don't want the mixture to be too stiff - as soon as the beaters leave a trail, it's ready.
• Gently fold the melted chocolate and cocoa powder into the cream mixture until thoroughly combined, ensuring the spatula is reaching the bottom of the bowl so all the chocolate gets mixed in. Fold in most of the chocolate chips, reserving a small handful. Scrape the mixture into a 1-litre freezerproof container, then scatter over the reserved chocolate chips. Cover and freeze for at least 6 hrs until firm but scoopable. Will keep frozen for up to a month. To serve, scoop the ice cream into chilled bowls or ice cream cones and sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt, if you like.
