Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ½ tablespoons instant coffee granules
- 1 tin sweetened condensed milk (395g/14oz)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups thickened cream (600ml)
- ¾ cup toasted cashew nuts, roughly chopped
- ¾ cup mini chocolate chips (or ½ cup shaved chocolate)
Instructions
- Prepare the Coffee Base by combining the instant coffee granules with 2 tablespoons of hot water in a small bowl until dissolved; let cool.
- Mix the Cream and Condensed Milk by whisking the thickened cream in a large bowl until soft peaks form, about 3-4 minutes. In another bowl, mix the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and cooled coffee mixture.
- Combine the Mixtures by gently folding the coffee-condensed milk mixture into the whipped cream without deflating it.
- Add the Crunchy Bits, folding in the toasted cashew nuts and chocolate chips, reserving some for topping.
- Chill Out by pouring the mixture into a freezer-safe container and freezing for at least 4-6 hours until firm, stirring every hour for the first 3 hours to avoid ice crystals.
- Scoop and Serve by letting the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes if too hard.
Notes
For serving, top with additional toasted cashews, chocolate chips, and a drizzle of caramel sauce. Customize with mocha swirls or different nuts for variations!
