Learn how to make awesome and super-easy ice cream bars at home. If you love chocolate and you love ice cream, give this ice cream bar recipe a try!
Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream 473ml
- 1 14- oz can of sweetened condensed milk 396g
- 1 tsp vanilla extract 5ml
- 2 cups chocolate chips or bars semi-sweet, milk, dark, etc.
- 1/4 cup of oil canola, olive, coconut, etc.
- Nuts coconut flakes, sprinkles, etc. (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix together the heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, and optional vanilla extract.
- Put the stick in the popsicle molds and then fill them up with the ice cream base. Freeze the ice cream base for 4 to 8 hours or even overnight, so they get nice and firm.
- Place the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and melt using bursts of 30 seconds and then stirring until melted. Or use the double-boiler method on the stovetop. Add oil to thin out the chocolate so it is nice and runny. Pour the chocolate into a tall glass.
- Remove a few bars from the molds, keep the rest in the freezer, and dip them in the chocolate. Allow the excess to drizzle off. The chocolate should firm up within 15 seconds or so. Place them on a sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Then repeat with more bars.
- If you want toppings like nuts, coconut flakes, etc. After you dip the ice cream bar in chocolate and let the excess drain off, quickly dip it in the toppings. Then place in the pan.
- Back into the freezer for an hour or so to firm up. Time to serve them. Enjoy!
