HOMEMADE CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM WITH ROASTED BERRIES- AN EASY EGGLESS NO CHURN CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM MADE WITH PANTRY BASICS. SUMMER RECIPES. ICE CREAM RECIPES.
Homemade chocolate ice cream with roasted berries is a true delight during hot summers. Technically, this was supposed to be just good old homemade chocolate ice cream. Ever since i began making ice cream at home, we have stopped eating ice cream outside. Seriously, nothing can equal a scoop of homemade chocolate ice cream or strawberry ice cream. While we love both chocolate and strawberry ice creams individually, the idea of combining the both came to me when a box of strawberries was reaching its prime. I decided to roast the berries in the oven until juicy and toss them in with my homemade chocolate ice cream. This however is totally optional. You can keep this as just some plain old chocolate ice cream.
This ice cream is something that will make you look like ice cream queen. Why? Because it is no churn. It has no eggs. It doesn’t need fancy equipment, no, not even a fancy ice cream tin. And its rich, creamy, velvety and oh so chocolatey! Yes, i made that word up. I love making my own words. Especially, when it comes to describing my homemade chocolate ice cream with roasted berries. I used a freezer safe take away container to make this ice cream. My sorry pictures bear testimony to that. I did not go to any lengths to take beautiful photos this time. Because i forgot to freeze my bowls every single time i planned a shoot and i ran out of ice cubes, thanks to summer.
That said and done, let me talk some more chocolate ice cream. Ok, i know. I m talking a lot. But guys, this is chocolate ice cream without an ice cream maker. So pleassseeeee bear with me, ok? Okay. I used some good quality chocolate chips to make this ice cream. And a very teeny tiny amount of cocoa powder to bring out that color. Also, i roasted the strawberries i Balsamic. That kind of really gave a nice tang to the bitter sweet chocolate ice cream. You got to trust me on this one.While this homemade chocolate ice cream is an indulgence all on its own, a handful of roasted berries takes it to a gourmet level. So, if you can get your hands on some good strawberries, which i m sure you can, it being summer, then please roast them and mix them in. So, shall we get a move on with the recipe, then? I guess, i have talked enough.
