Equipment

  • 1 Ice Cream Maker (electric or manual)
  • 1 Mixing Bowl (medium-sized)
  • (1) Whisk
  • 1 spatula
  • 1 Measuring Cups & Spoons
  • 1 Freezer-Safe Container (shallow)

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups 480 ml Chocolate Milk
  • 1 cup 240 ml Whole Milk
  • 1 cup 240 ml Heavy Cream
  • 3/4 cup 150 g Granulated Sugar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/4 tsp Salt

Instructions
 

Step 1: Prepare the Ice Cream Base

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the chocolate milk, whole milk, and heavy cream. Whisk the mixture until well combined.
    Add the granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Continue whisking until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.

Step 2: Churn the Mixture

  • Pour the prepared ice cream mixture into your ice cream maker.
    Follow the manufacturer’s instructions, usually churning for about 20–30 minutes, or until the mixture thickens to a soft-serve consistency.

Step 3: Freeze the Ice Cream

  • Transfer the churned ice cream to a freezer-safe container.
    Smooth the top with a spatula, cover with plastic wrap (optional), and seal with the lid.
    Place the container in the freezer and let it freeze for 4–6 hours, or overnight, until firm.

Step 4: Serve and Enjoy

  • Once the ice cream has frozen completely, scoop it into bowls or cones and enjoy!
    You can add toppings like chocolate chips, whipped cream, or sprinkles if desired.

Notes

  • Make Ahead: This ice cream can be prepared in advance and stored in the freezer for up to a month.
  • No Ice Cream Maker? If you don't have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow container, freeze it, and stir every 30 minutes to break up any ice crystals until it reaches a creamy consistency.
  • Customizations: Feel free to mix in chocolate chips, crushed cookies, or even swirl in fudge or caramel to make your ice cream extra indulgent.
