If you've always wanted to make ice cream but don't have the space for an ice-cream maker, this one is for you. It's a shockingly easy recipe that tastes sweet and rich and decadent and will take the place of a dozen backrubs. It's just that good. I actually make it fairly often, so I'm surprised to see that I haven't already posted this dish. All you really need is a whisk, a bowl and some way of freezing the finished product, and I have whisked the ingredients by hand before. A hand mixer or stand mixer with the whisk attachment will make your life a whole lot easier, though. I'm entering this ice cream into the Beat the Heat blogging event hosted by A Southern Grace.
Chocolate Hazelnut Ice Cream (serves 4; approx. $0.64 per serving)
1 1/2 cups whipping cream
4 oz Nutella or other chocolate-hazelnut spread
2 oz confectioner's sugar
Equipment:
- Stand mixer (or 1 bowl and one whisk or hand mixer)
- Freezer-safe container
- Stir 6 tablespoons of cream into the Nutella in order to slacken it.
- Whip the remaining cream with the sugar until it holds soft peaks.
- Add in the chocolate and whip.
- Turn the mixture into a shallow container, cover and still-freeze until firm.
Jessica, I want 2 scoops please but in a sugar cone!

Yum I like how you have the price per serving. Nutella ice cream is really goo stuff, and the fact that it's egg-free is a nice bonus.

Easy and delicious. That's my kind of recipe! It looks divine.

Sounds yummy -- especially the prep. I've never tried Nutella (ducks in embarrassment...) but I'm thinking this would be perfect for an ice cream sandwich.

Omega - go ahead and make it - it doesn't really require any special equipment, I've made it with a hand whisk before!
