Description
A creamy, crunchy chip chocolate ice cream made with a rich vanilla base and delicate chocolate flakes. Easy to make with or without an ice cream maker.
Ingredients
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
4 oz semisweet or bittersweet chocolate (melted)
1 tsp coconut oil (optional, for firmer chocolate flakes)
Instructions
1. Whisk together cream, milk, sugar, and vanilla in a bowl until sugar is dissolved.
2. Chill the base in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
3. Pour chilled base into your ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer instructions.
4. When the mixture is nearly frozen, drizzle in the melted chocolate (mixed with coconut oil, if using) in a slow stream.
5. Continue churning for 1–2 more minutes until chocolate hardens into flakes.
6. Transfer to a container, press plastic wrap to the surface, and freeze for at least 4 hours before serving.
Notes
Melted chocolate will create flakes if added while churning. Don’t add too early.
Add a pinch of espresso powder for enhanced chocolate flavor.
Use a shallow container for faster freezing.
