No-churn coffee ice cream
Ingredients
Step by step process
Preparing the coffee mixture
- 1
Coffee ice cream relies on a bold coffee flavor, so first brew 60 ml of strong espresso and let it cool completely. If you don't have an espresso machine, dissolve 2 tablespoons of instant coffee in 2 tablespoons of hot water and cool it as well.
- 2
Stir the cooled coffee into the sweetened condensed milk. Mix the milk and coffee thoroughly until you get a smooth brown mixture with no lumps.
Whipping and freezing
- 3
Whip the chilled heavy cream in a bowl with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form. The cream has to hold its shape, otherwise the ice cream will lose its airy texture.
- 4
Fold one third of the whipped cream into the coffee mixture to loosen it. Add the rest of the cream in batches and fold it in gently with a spatula from the bottom up so it stays airy.
- 5
Pour the finished mixture into a pre-chilled container and level the surface. Cover the container and place it in the freezer for at least 6 hours, ideally overnight, until the ice cream sets firmly.
- 6
Before serving, let the ice cream soften at room temperature for 5 minutes so it scoops easily. Scoop with a spoon dipped in warm water and serve right away.
More tips:
For a more intense flavor, add a pinch of ground cinnamon or a teaspoon of coffee liqueur to the mixture.
