      What Ingredient Gives Chocolate Ice Cream Its Creamy Texture?

      Dairy: cream, but often milk or half and half are also included, is a key factor in the creaminess of ice cream. The fat content of your ice cream influences its texture: the higher the fat content, the creamier the end result.

      Top Tips:

      Buying good cocoa powder is the key to making great chocolate ice cream. If you’ve had an open container of cocoa powder in your cupboard for a long time, it’s time to replace it. Cocoa powder gradually loses its potency.

      The mixture of milk, sugar, and cocoa should be smooth and completely dissolved. Otherwise, the ice cream’s texture will be off. Separating these three ingredients from the others allows them to reach the desired consistency before combining them with the cream and vanilla.

      Add any mix-ins you want after the ice cream has been processed through the ice cream maker.

      Variations:

      Although this recipe is delicious as is, there are many mix-ins you can add to customize the flavor. After the ice cream has frozen, fold in a ribbon of chocolate syrup, a handful of chocolate chips, or even a few roughly chopped chocolate sandwich cookies to increase the chocolate factor to your liking.
