Coffee Ice Cream

1. Prepare the Coffee Base

• In a small bowl, dissolve the 3 tablespoons of soluble coffee in 1 tablespoon of hot water.
• Stir until completely smooth and set aside to cool slightly.

2. Whip the Cream

• Pour the chilled whipping cream into a large mixing bowl.
• Using an electric mixer, whip until soft peaks form. (Do not over-whip.)

3. Make the Ice Cream Base

• In another bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and the dissolved coffee.
• Add in vanilla extract (if using) and stir well to combine.
• Gently fold the coffee mixture into the whipped cream using a spatula. Use slow, folding motions to keep the mixture airy.

4. Add Chocolate & Flavor Twists

• Chop up some dark chocolate or chocolate chips and fold them into the mixture for texture and flavor.
• Optional: Add swirls of caramel or crushed nuts for variety.

5. Freeze the Mixture

• Pour the final mixture into a freezer-safe container.
• Cover with plastic wrap or a lid and freeze for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight, until firm.

💡 Tips & Tricks

• For an ultra-smooth texture, stir the mixture gently after the first 2 hours of freezing.
• Use a chilled metal container for faster freezing.
• Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before scooping.

❤️ Coffee Ice Cream Lovers Unite

There’s a reason coffee ice cream has a cult following—it’s more than dessert; it’s a shared obsession. Some fall in love with the deep, roasted notes of the coffee. Others adore how it satisfies both sweet and bitter cravings in a single bite.
