I love simple no churn ice cream recipes! They are so quick and easy to make, and are ready in no time. You don’t have to make a custard, temper eggs, or spend hours churning and freezing.

You can easily make this mocha chip ice cream anytime you want! Just mix and freeze and enjoy!

Top this with whipped cream, homemade hot fudge sauce or caramel sauce for an extra decadent bowl.

Recipe Ingredients 

  • Heavy cream – helps to create a smooth and soft ice cream. You cannot substitute this with a lower fat milk, it must be a good quality cream! 
  • Sweetened condensed milk – this sweetems the ice cream and allows us to create a thick base without a custard. It also helps prevent the mixture from freezing solid.
  • Espresso powder – gives us an intense coffee flavor to the ice cream. It needs to be dissolved in hot water so you don’t end up with large chunks of it left.
  • Mini chocolate chips – provide a fun crunch and chocolate flavor.
