Recipe Ingredients
You only need a few ingredients to make this ice cream:
- Heavy cream – Creates a rich and flavorful ice cream! Use a fresh, good quality heavy cream with plenty of milk fat.
- Sweetened condensed milk – This helps add sweetness to the ice cream without additional sugar, and also helps to make a soft and smooth ice cream. Do not substitute with evaporated milk.
- Cocoa Powder – For that great chocolatey taste use a high quality unsweetened dutch processed cocoa powder.
- Red Food Coloring Gel – Using a gel food coloring ensures you get a nice red color without adding extra liquid to the ice cream, which could change the texture.
- Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips – You can use regular size or mini.
