Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Nutella
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the whole milk, heavy cream, and granulated sugar. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is fully dissolved. Do not let it boil.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and whisk in the Nutella until smooth and fully incorporated.
Add the vanilla extract and salt to the mixture, stirring well to combine.
Transfer the mixture to a clean bowl and let it cool to room temperature. You can speed up the cooling process by placing the bowl in an ice bath and stirring occasionally.
Once the mixture is at room temperature, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until it is completely chilled.
Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually for 20-25 minutes, until thickened and creamy.
Transfer the gelato to an airtight container and freeze for an additional 2-4 hours to allow it to firm up to the perfect scooping consistency.
Serve the Nutella Gelato in bowls or cones, and enjoy!
