Coffee Chocolate Ice-cream

by L.E.

This coffee chocolate ice-cream is an extremely creamy, delicious, and slightly boozy treat; the perfect summer dessert. No ice-cream machine needed!

This is the third ice-cream recipe I write this week, however, this was actually the first ice-cream I ever made. It was the result of a sudden inspiration. One afternoon, I was a bit bored so I looked through my pantry and found some coffee liqueur, icing sugar and heavy whipping cream. After a bit more rummaging, I also found some semi-sweet chocolate chips. A lightbulb went on in my mind; I am going to make ice-cream, I decided!

And so this recipe was born. I’m actually quite proud of this recipe and the fact that I can now make my own homemade ice-cream without an ice-cream maker. Store-bought ice-cream doesn’t taste the same anymore. Besides, whenever I look at the price of the ice-cream at the supermarket I make a quick calculation in my head and realise I can make something way better at a fraction of the price! I highly recommend that you try making your own ice-cream at least once. If you enjoy ice-cream, it might be life-changing. Trust me on this one.

My husband loved this flavour in particular and we both devoured it in a day! In our defence, it was our cheat day, after all, and we allowed ourselves a little treat. I bought some waffle cones from the supermarket (they’re available in most big supermarkets) and an ice-cream scoop and we unleashed our inner children and ate ice-cream for lunch! I don’t think there’s anything better than ice-cream for lunch in this whole world!

Ingredients

  1. One cup of heavy whipping cream.
  2. A quarter cup of coffee liqueur; I bought a bottle from this small distillery at the farmer’s market in the Vancouver area, but you can probably use any brand or type you like.
  3. Half a cup of icing sugar
  4. Half a cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips

Method

  1. In a deep bowl, using an electric hand mixer, whip up the cream until soft peaks start to form.
  2. Gradually add the icing sugar while continuing to beat the cream until stiff peaks form.
  3. Add the coffee liqueur while continuing to mix it using the hand mixer.
  4. Gently fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula or spoon.
  5. Ladle the mixture into a container with an airtight lid and place in the freezer.
  6. After two hours, remove from the freezer and stir the mixture with a whisk or a fork. Replace it in the freezer.
  7. Repeat step number 6 every hour three more times. Then allow the ice-cream mixture to freeze until firm.
  8. Serve in a waffle cone, on top of brownies or simply on its own in a bowl! Enjoy!
