Simple Chocolate Ice Cream
Ingredients
- 3/4 cups cocoa powder (sifted)
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup packed dark brown sugar
- pinch salt
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
Note
*This recipe was originally found in the Cuisinart Recipe booklet, but I tend to play with the measurements so this is what I use.
Directions
Step 1 | |
In a medium bowl, whisk together the cocoa, sugars, and salt. | |
Step 2 | |
Add the milk and, using a hand mixer on low speed, beat to combine until the cocoa, sugars, and salt are dissolved. | |
Step 3 | |
Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla. | |
Step 4 | |
Cover and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours (or overnight) | |
Step 5 | |
Following the directions of your ice cream maker, pour mixture in. (I have a Cuisinart, so mine has to mix for about 15-20 minutes). | |
Step 6 | |
If you want it thicker, freeze immediately for about 2 hours, otherwise serve it up in a bowl or on a cone! |
