Three Ingredient Chocolate Ice Cream Recipe {No Machine Required!}

August 19, 2014

One day I hope to be the cool Mom.

You know baking up special treats. Surprising my kids with spontaneous vacations. And staying up late having water balloon fights in the backyard.

I am grateful that I have so many great memories of my own Mom. One these memories from my childhood, were a few times when my Mom would come home from a long day at work and declare it “ice cream for dinner” night! I mean really, ice cream for dinner (!!!) that is a kid’s dream!

My siblings and I would then pile into the minivan, as giddy as could be, eagerly awaiting our family night at the local ice cream shop. Right then and there our Mom was the coolest Mom on the planet, quite possibly the universe!

Everything about these special ice cream nights will forever live as one of my favorite childhood memories. Not only because of the fact that my Mom was willing to occasionally throw all the parenting rules out the window, but because my siblings and I were able to bond and create memories over bowls of ice cream on a hot summer night.

To this day, I can’t walk into an ice cream shop or even enjoy a big bowl of ice cream without thinking about those “ice cream for dinner” nights. The excitement, the conversations and of course the assortment of flavors and toppings each one of us would carefully pick out.

While much of the country is already headed back to school, we have a few more days of summer freedom ahead of us. I can’t think of a better time to be a ‘cool’ Mom, and allow some rules to be broken! Some ice cream for dinner? Sure why not!

This Three Ingredient Chocolate Ice Cream is adapted from the Three Ingredient Vanilla Ice Cream I shared last summer. Both of these ice creams are so easy to whip up and don’t even require an ice cream maker! A big bowl of creamy, chocolaty soft serve ice cream is what’s for dinner tonight! : )

Three Ingredient Chocolate Ice Cream {No Machine Required!}
Printable Version 
Prep Time: 15 minutes Wait Time: 6-8 hours Makes: approximately 1 1/2 quarts

Creamy, soft serve ice cream, rich in chocolate flavor! 

Ingredients:
2 cups heavy whipping cream (1 pint)
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
½ cup cocoa powder

Directions:
Sift cocoa powder into a small bowl to remove any lumps.

Pour sweetened condensed milk into a large bowl. Slowly stir in cocoa powder a little at a time. 

Pour heavy cream into a separate bowl and whisk until medium peaks form. Slowly fold whipped cream into sweetened condensed milk mixture folding until well combined. Pour into a freezer safe container.

Cover and freeze for at least 6 to 8 hours or until firm. After freezing place a sheet of plastic wrap directly on ice cream (to prevent freezer burn) and place lid on top. Return to freezer until ready to serve. Serve as desired.

Optional: Additional add-ins, such as flavored extracts, chocolate chips, candy, fruit, crushed cookies, and so forth, may be folded in before freezing.
