Old Fashioned Homemade Chocolate Ice Cream

Is there any treat better than a chocolate ice cream on a hot day? I don't think so.

For beginners, I'd go with no-churn ice cream. It is super easy, simple, and undeniable; making no-churn ice cream is cheaper and also cost-effective. Absolutely worth it!

In this recipe, I am sharing the secret to create the all-time favorite: No-Churn Chocolate Ice Cream. It will give us an intensely deep chocolatey flavor with a smooth texture in a super easy and hassle-free technique.

No Machine? No Worries!

Just a little bit of information, no-churn means “no ice cream maker” and you only have an electric mixer together with a handful of materials with you. It seems to be a bit of a difficulty, but I assure you it’s not.

This method is definitely good news for those who have no plans to buy an ice cream maker and also those who always purchase an expensive gallon of ice cream but still feel unsatisfied in the end.

Why We Love This Recipe

Here are some of the reasons why it is better to try this recipe among others:

• Ingredients are affordable and easy to find in the market.
• More accessible and convenient than the traditional process.
• You only need an electric whisk to make this recipe.
• Easy, no churn chocolate ice cream recipe.

What’s In This Homemade Chocolate Ice Cream Recipe?

Heavy Cream: This is also known as whipping cream, and it is the key to a creamy, rich ice cream.

Tip: For best results, you can place the bowl and electric whisk attachment in the freezer for at least 30 minutes before you plan to use them for whipping. Heavy cream works well when it is cold.

Sweetened Condensed Milk: Every dessert would unquestionably taste much better with sweetened condensed milk. This ingredient is also used as an alternative in the considerably long part of ice cream making - the custard base (which involves a combination of sugar, eggs, etc.)

Cocoa Powder: I like to use unsweetened cocoa powder to get a deep chocolatey flavor and this is also relatively inexpensive.

Vanilla Extract: It helps balance and enhance flavor and can also be an excellent add-on to tone the scent. Will require only a small amount.

Chocolate Chips: In hundreds of ice cream versions I know, nothing would be better without these chocolate chips. Aside from the sweet and crunchy taste, chocolate chips add up the excitement to every bite.

Pinch Of Salt: This is optional; I only use it to balance the sweetness of the condensed milk.

Variations & Substitutions

• Swirl a sweet caramel sauce on top of the ice cream.
• You can add up marshmallows and almonds to make some double dutch chocolate flavor.

How To Make Old Fashioned Homemade Chocolate Ice Cream?

One: In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream with an electric hand mixer until firm but soft peaks form.

Two: Stir in condensed milk, cocoa powder, vanilla extract and salt until combined. Then, stir in the chocolate chips.

Three: Transfer the chocolate ice cream into a loaf tin or any container you have, wrap with plastic wrap.

Four: Freeze for at least 4 hours until firm, then serve.

Expert Tips

• Store the ice cream in a metal container to speed up the cooling and freezing process. Don’t overfill the ice cream in it.
• Don’t forget to seal the container tightly to avoid picking up odors from the fridge.

Serving Suggestions

I love to serve my Chocolate Ice Cream with a slice of Peanut Butter Fudge, Chocolate Almond Fudge or Microwave Chocolate Marshmallow Fudge.

You may serve it in a small bowl (good for 3 scoops) or inside a cone. Don’t forget to sprinkle some chocolate chips on top too!

Also, it goes well with Cinnamon Scones, Cheese Biscuits, Lemon Raspberry Scones and Golden Syrup Cake.
