To make this simple yet indulgent ice cream, here’s what you’ll need:

For the Ice Cream Base:

2 cups heavy cream

How to Make Chocolate Chocolate Chip Ice Cream

Step 1: Create the Chocolate Ice Cream Base

1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cocoa powder, and salt.

2. Gradually add the milk while stirring continuously over medium heat until smooth and well combined. Do not let it boil.

3. Remove the mixture from heat and allow it to cool for 10 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla extract.

Step 2: Chill the Mixture

Pour the mixture into a bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2–3 hours, or until completely chilled. A chilled base helps you achieve a smoother texture.

Step 3: Churn and Add Chocolate Chips

1. Pour the chilled mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This usually takes about 20–25 minutes.

2. In the last 5 minutes of churning, gradually add the chocolate chips to ensure even distribution.

Step 4: Freeze and Serve

1. Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container.

2. Freeze for at least 2 hours to allow it to firm up.

3. Scoop, serve, and enjoy the perfect bowl of chocolate chocolate chip ice cream!
