Table of Contents

2 cups heavy cream

1 cup sweetened condensed milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup chocolate flakes (or finely chopped chocolate)

In a large mixing bowl, pour in the heavy cream. Using an electric mixer, beat the cream on medium-

high speed until stiff peaks form. This should take about 3-4 minutes. The cream should be thick and

hold its shape well.

Gently fold in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract into the whipped cream. Use a

spatula to combine the ingredients, ensuring you maintain the airiness of the whipped cream. Mix

until fully incorporated and smooth.

Add the chocolate flakes (or finely chopped chocolate) to the cream mixture. Carefully fold the

chocolate into the cream, ensuring even distribution throughout the mixture. The goal is to keep the

mixture light and airy while thoroughly mixing in the chocolate.

Transfer the ice cream mixture into a freezer-safe container. Smooth the top with a spatula, then cover

the container with a lid or plastic wrap. Place the container in the freezer and allow it to freeze for at

least 4-6 hours, or overnight for the best results.
