Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, stir together the instant espresso powder and hot water until no lumps remain; set aside to cool.

  2. Add the heavy cream to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Start on low speed and gradually work up to high speed, beating the cream until it becomes thick and forms stiff peaks, about 2 minutes.

  3. Add the sweetened condensed milk and espresso.

  4. Gently fold them into the whipped cream.

  5. Optional: Fold in the mini chocolate chips.

Chef's Notes



Instant espresso powder gives an intense coffee flavor to our ice cream. The hot water helps dissolve the espresso so we aren't left with any huge chunks of espresso powder. The heavy cream whips into a smooth, soft ice cream. Unfortunately, you cannot substitute lower fat milks in this recipe; it must be heavy cream! Sweetened condensed milk sweetens the ice cream and prevents it from freezing solid. The mini chocolate chips are optional and provide a crunch and hint of chocolate. I highly recommend using mini chips as the regular size tend to freeze in really hard chunks. If you don’t have mini chips, just give the regular chips a rough chop before you add them in.
