Making the dark chocolate ice cream without an ice cream maker

You can make your yummy chocolate ice cream with an ice cream maker or you can do it the old style, proven way and make it by hand. It is not as hard as you might think. All you need to do is stir the ice cream regularly during the freezing process.

  1. Place the ice cream mixture into a freezer-safe container and put it in the freezer.
  2. Every 30 minutes, stir the mixture, until it is fully frozen. That will be after about 4 hours.

Before serving, take the dark chocolate ice cream out of the freezer and let it rest for 15 minutes. By then it has the perfect consistency.
