- 2 cups heavy cream

- 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
- 2 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
- 1/2 cup fudge sauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt

- Whisk in sugar, espresso powder, and salt until dissolved.
- Add the chopped dark chocolate to the mixture and stir until fully melted and smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
- Let the mixture cool to room temperature before transferring it to the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Once chilled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- In the last few minutes of churning, drizzle in the fudge sauce for a swirled effect.
- Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to firm up before serving.
Notes
- If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can freeze the mixture in a container, stirring every 30 minutes until it reaches a smooth, creamy consistency.
- For extra richness, use a high-quality dark chocolate.
- You can adjust the amount of fudge sauce based on how chocolatey you want the ice cream to be.
