Notes
This recipe makes approximately 8 two-scoop servings.
The chocolate chip ice cream should be left to sit at room temperature for around 20 minutes before scooping into dishes; this will result in your ice cream being at the perfect consistency to eat and allows any ice crystals that may have formed to melt.
Before you scoop, run your ice cream scoop under hot water to help it glide through the ice cream, making it easier to serve.
It’s essential to start with cold ingredients – ice cream made in an ice cream maker works on the premise of the mixture being as cold as possible before you churn. It’s best to try and copy this.
Do not be tempted to substitute the condensed milk. To ensure your ice cream doesn’t become icy, you should avoid using ingredients that don’t freeze well. Condensed milk results in a wonderful creamy consistency.
