- ½ cup whole milk (or creamy dairy-free alternative)
- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups heavy cream or heavy whipping cream
Instructions
- Heat the milk until hot but not boiling. Whisk in cocoa powder until smooth and paste-like to bloom the cocoa.

- In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream to medium-stiff peaks.

- Pour into a loaf pan or freezer-safe container, smooth the top, and cover.
- Freeze for at least 6 hours or until firm enough to scoop.
Notes
- For a mocha twist, add 1 tbsp instant espresso powder when blooming cocoa.
- Fold in chocolate chips, crushed cookies, or nuts before freezing for extra texture.
- Swirl in caramel, peanut butter, or fudge for extra indulgence.
- For dairy-free, substitute coconut cream and coconut-based condensed milk.
