Description

Indulge in this creamy, rich, and decadent double chocolate ice cream made with both unsweetened and Dutch-processed cocoa powders, plus a generous amount of chocolate chips. It’s the ultimate treat for chocolate lovers!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips


Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan, whisk together the heavy cream, milk, sugar, cocoa powders, and salt.
  • Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Let the mixture cool completely, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  • Once chilled, churn the mixture in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  • During the last few minutes of churning, add the chocolate chips.
  • Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

  • For a richer ice cream, use half-and-half instead of whole milk.
  • You can add other mix-ins to the ice cream, such as nuts, candy, or fruit.
  • If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can make no-churn ice cream by whipping the cream until stiff peaks form. Then, fold in the cooled chocolate mixture and freeze.
