Ingredients:
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
¾ cup granulated sugar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
½ cup chocolate syrup or melted chocolate (for swirling)
—
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Ice Cream Base: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together heavy cream, milk, sugar, and vanilla extract until the sugar is completely dissolved.
2. Chill: Cover the mixture and refrigerate it for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.
3. Churn: Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
4. Add the Swirl: Spoon half of the ice cream into a freezer-safe container. Drizzle half of the chocolate syrup or melted chocolate over the layer. Repeat with the remaining ice cream and chocolate.
5. Create the Swirl: Use a butter knife or skewer to gently swirl the chocolate into the ice cream, creating a marbled effect. Be careful not to overmix.
6. Freeze: Cover the container with a lid or plastic wrap and freeze for 4-6 hours, or until firm.
7. Serve: Scoop into bowls and enjoy this creamy, swirled treat! Perfect with a sprinkle of chocolate chips or nuts if desired.
