Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 14 oz Sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 2 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tbsp Powdered sugar
- 0.25 cup Graham cracker crumbs (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with a hand mixer or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Gradually add the sweetened condensed milk to the cream cheese, mixing until fully incorporated and smooth.
Whisk in the vanilla extract and sifted cocoa powder to the mixture, ensuring there are no lumps.
In a separate chilled mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar until stiff peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture in three parts, ensuring everything is evenly combined without deflating the whipped cream.
Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 20-second intervals and stirring between each interval until smooth, then allow it to cool slightly.
Drizzle half of the melted chocolate into the mixture and gently fold it in to form chocolate swirls. Reserve the remaining melted chocolate for later use if desired.
Transfer the mixture to an airtight, freezer-safe container. Optionally, sprinkle graham cracker crumbs on top and drizzle any leftover chocolate for extra texture.
Cover the container and freeze for at least 6 hours, or until the ice cream is firm and scoopable.
Allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping and serving.
