Chocolate chip ice cream recipe with step by step photos – easy recipe of a creamy, smooth choco chips ice cream. Does not need any ice cream maker.
This chocolate chip ice cream is super easy to prepare and is similar to the Chocolate ice cream i had posted earlier.
There is no ice crystal formation in this ice cream. You can make it any time and serve it whenever required. This recipe gives a large block of ice cream. You can even make sundaes or special desserts with it.
For the cream you can use 25% to 50% fat cream. I have used used amul whipping cream, which is 30% fat and it did whip well. If using 25% fat cream, then you can whip it till soft peaks. If you add icing sugar in this cream, then you can whip it till stiff peaks.
The same recipe can also be made in an ice cream maker. I have used brown sugar in the recipe. You can use regular sugar too. Also do use a good quality cocoa powder.
How to make chocolate chip ice cream
1. First take all the ingredients and keep them ready- 2 cups cream (25% to 50% fat), 3 tablespoons milk, 3 tablespoons cocoa powder, ½ cup condensed milk and ⅓ cup tightly packed brown sugar. You can also use regular sugar or half-half of both regular sugar or brown sugar.
2. Take milk in a pan or in mixing bowl and keep it on the stovetop. Heat the milk. No need to boil.
3. Place the pan or bowl down. Add cocoa powder.
4. Whisk till all the cocoa powder dissolves in the milk.
5. Now add condensed milk.
6. Again mix very well.
7. Next add brown sugar.
8. Mix again till the sugar has dissolved. If the sugar has not dissolved, then heat this mixture lightly on a low flame and stir continuously till all the sugar dissolves. Or you can add sugar first and then add condensed milk. Keep this mixture aside. Let this chocolate mixture cool at room temperature.
Whipping the cream
9. Take chilled cream in a stand mixer and begin to whip it on high speed, till stiff peaks. You can also use an electric beater to whip.
10. Whip till you get stiff peaks. The cream will increase in volume and when you turn the bowl down, the cream should not fall. Or when you take the whipped cream in a spatula or spoon and turn it down, the cream won’t fall.

Ma’am I wasn’t able to get that stiff peaks in cream like your’s :/
anam, which cream you used. if its 25% fat cream, then you have to whip for atleast 8 to 10 minutes to get soft to stiff peaks. just continue to whip and you should get either soft or stiff peaks.
