Why You Will Love This Ice Cream

There’s a lot to love about this homemade chocolate ice cream. For starters, it’s made with simple, everyday ingredients that come together to create a dessert that’s truly special. But what really sets it apart is the use of egg yolks.

Egg yolks are a key ingredient in many premium ice creams, and for good reason. They contribute to the richness and creaminess of the ice cream, giving it a smooth and velvety texture that’s hard to resist. The yolks also lend a beautiful pale yellow color to the ice cream, making it even more appealing.

In addition, egg yolks help to stabilize the ice cream mixture, preventing the formation of ice crystals and ensuring that the ice cream stays creamy and scoopable, even after freezing.

Ingredients:

• 110 ml Heavy cream
• 2 tbsp Dutch cocoa powder
• 3 tbsp Pudding mix
• 3 Egg yolks
• 160 ml Milk
• ½ cup White sugar

Method:

1. Combine the double cream, chocolate powder, pudding mix, sugar, egg yolks, and milk in a large bowl.
2. Blend the mixture until it’s smooth and all the ingredients are well combined.
3. Pour the mixture into the Ninja Creami’s pint and freeze for 24 hours.
4. After freezing, use the ‘Light Ice Cream’ setting on the Ninja Creami to churn the mixture. Follow the machine’s instructions carefully.

Recipe Tips

For the best results, ensure you blend the mixture thoroughly before freezing. This helps to evenly distribute the ingredients and creates a smoother consistency. Also, remember to allow enough time for the mixture to fully freeze before churning it in the Ninja Creami.
