Ingredients
- 90 g Dutch-processed cocoa
- 180 g 180ml or 3/4 cup hot water
- 600 g sweetened condensed milk light or regular
- 450 g thickened cream also known as heavy cream or whipping cream, 35% fat
- 300 g milk light or regular
- Pinch of fine salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Chocolate Base: Whisk the cocoa and hot water together to bloom the cocoa, creating a smooth chocolate syrup. Next, whisk in the sweetened condensed milk to slightly cool the mixture. Finally, add the cream, milk, and salt, mixing until the mixture turns a medium chocolate brown.
- Freeze the Mixture: Pour the mixture into your Ninja Creami tub and freeze overnight or for up to 24 hours, leaving the lid off.
- Process in the Ninja Creami: When ready, process the mixture using the "ice cream" setting on your Ninja Creami. This recipe usually reaches the perfect consistency after just one spin.
- Serve and Store: Serve your rich chocolate ice cream immediately. If you have leftovers, store them in the freezer with the lid on. This ice cream doesn’t usually need re-processing; just let it soften slightly on the counter before serving.
Notes
- For the most accurate measurements, use scales and grams. Most American scales have a gram setting.
- There is no substitute for sweetened condensed milk in this recipe.
- Avoid using double cream, as it adds too much fat. The cocoa itself already contributes a good amount of fat.
- To make this recipe lactose-free, use lactose-free thickened cream and milk. You can also use lactose-free condensed milk or coconut condensed milk, though the latter will impart a coconut flavor.
- For an enhanced chocolate flavor, try adding a small amount of coffee to the mix.
