Who doesn’t love a scoop of creamy, delicious chocolate chip ice cream on a hot summer day? Making your own homemade version is easier than you might think, and the results will be absolutely mouthwatering. Follow these simple steps to create the perfect chocolate chip ice cream at home.

Ingredients:
– 2 cups heavy cream
– 1 cup whole milk
– 3/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions:

1. In a medium saucepan, heat the heavy cream, whole milk, and sugar over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved. Do not let the mixture boil.

2. Once the sugar has dissolved, remove the mixture from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Allow the mixture to cool completely before moving on to the next step.

3. Once the mixture has cooled, pour it into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This usually takes about 20-30 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened into a soft-serve consistency.

4. While the ice cream is churning, place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and melt them in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between each interval, until smooth.

5. Once the ice cream has reached the desired consistency, slowly drizzle in the melted chocolate and continue churning for an additional 5 minutes to evenly distribute the chocolate throughout the ice cream.

6. Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until the ice cream has hardened.

7. When ready to serve, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly before scooping into bowls or cones.

8. Enjoy your delicious homemade chocolate chip ice cream with your favorite toppings or on its own!
