How to Make No Churn Chocolate Chip Ice cream.

This is by far the easiest no churn chocolate chip recipe! Who knew you could make chocolate chip ice cream without an ice cream machine!!? This is so exciting, especially if you are an ice cream lover like I am. 

To make this recipe, you will need to get out a few items: 2 mixing bowls, a hand mixer or a standing mixer, and a rubber spatula. In one of the medium bowls mix together the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, pinch of salt, and chocolate chips. Set this aside.

In another bowl, or in the standing mixer bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream together until stiff peaks form. Make sure the mixer is on high speed when you are mixing this together. It should only take about a minute for the peaks to form. The stiff peaks will help the ice cream to be fluffy and airy when it freezes. Even if the whipping cream does not look like it has stiff peaks forming, it might be. To check, turn the mixer off, and gently lift it straight out of the bowl. If you see little peaks standing there, you’re done and ready to go. If you don’t see stiff peaks, or they fall a bit, continue mixing for about 30 more seconds. Check it again. 

Once the stiff peaks have formed, slowly -about one cup at a time- add the whipped cream to the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chip mixture. Carefully fold them together with a rubber spatula until no streaks remain. Make sure to scrape the bottom of the bowl (especially in the center) to get any condensed milk mixture that might have gotten stuck there. You want it as smooth as possible. 

Once everything is folded together, pour the ice cream mixture into a loaf pan. Spread it around evenly with a rubber spatula. Place in the freezer for 3-4 hours or overnight.

Remove the ice cream 5 minutes prior to serving to allow it to soften slightly.

Add your favorite toppings and enjoy!
