I, like most people, like easy recipes, especially in the summer when I want something delicious but still quick. I don’t want to turn that oven on & I don’t want to spend more than a few minutes on preparation. I’m always looking for recipes with just a few steps & even fewer ingredients too keep on hand. Which is why I always seem to come back to this simple & easy homemade chocolate chip ice cream. With just 3 ingredients you can’t go wrong.

I can tell you that this homemade ice cream is so simple to make! No ice cream maker needed, no churning required & it’s basically foolproof, you MUST give it a try! In fact, it’s so easy I often let my kids whip it up on their own so they can get creative with whatever mix-ins they are wanting at the time. It’s rich, creamy, cool & delicious, everything you want on a hot summer day.

3 Ingredient Chocolate Chip Ice Cream

Chocolate Chip Ice Cream ingredients

Here is what you need:

2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 14oz can sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
 

Whip the whipping cream until it's light and fluffy

Step 1: Add whipping cream to your mixer bowl with the whip attachment.

Add the sweetened condensed milk into the whipped cream

Step 2: Add sweetened condensed milk.

Whip the mixture on high speed until smooth

Step 3:Whip on the highest setting you can set your mixer at without it spattering outside your bowl for 4-6 minutes or until lighter & creamy looking. It won’t whip to peaks but just look thick & smooth.

Pour cream mixture into a loaf pan or baking dish - something that is freezer friendly!

Step 4: Transfer to freezer safe container.

Add mini chocolate chips to cream mixture

Step 5: Slowly sprinkle in your chocolate chips & run a knife through the dish to distribute some of them through the ice cream without allowing them all to sink to the bottom.

Freeze ice cream overnight, or for at least 8 hours

Step 6: Cover & freeze for at least 8-10 hours, or overnight. I haven’t found a store bought ice cream with a flavor like this one. It’s heavenly & amazing what 3 simple ingredients can become!

Recipe Notes

You can substitute some coarsely grated chocolate for the mini chocolate chips if desired. The key is to keep the chocolate small though so that it melts in your mouth with the ice cream. You want to avoid it becoming something you have to chew. Larger pieces of chocolate (like a regular size chocolate chip) tend to get quite hard & uncomfortable when frozen.
