Ingredients
– 2 cups heavy cream
– 1 cup whole milk
– 3/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– A pinch of salt
– 3 oz dark chocolate (finely chopped, optional for extra richness)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt until the sugar and cocoa powder are completely dissolved.
If you want a richer flavor, melt the chopped dark chocolate in a microwave or double boiler, then whisk it into the mixture until smooth.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually for about 20-25 minutes.
Once the ice cream has reached a soft-serve consistency, transfer it to a lidded container.
Freeze the ice cream for at least 2-4 hours, or until it is firm.
