Key Ingredients You’ll Need
Heavy Cream: This is a great thickening agent and when used at room temperature it will give you a creamier consistency.
Sweetened Condensed Milk: This ingredient is all about getting that smooth and almost creamy texture that you love when it comes to ice cream.
Vanilla Extract: Vanilla is used not only to add an aroma to the recipe but also to enhance the flavor as well for a sweeter and more delicious recipe.
Cocoa Powder: To get that chocolatey flavor you will be using cocoa powder because it blends easily into the batter and has a strong flavor.
Almonds: I love adding almonds for a crunchy flavor! You can use other nuts of your choice.
Mini Marshmallows: Adding mini marshmallows will add tiny spongey bits into the ice cream that add a nice and soft texture.
Mini Chocolate Chips: Mini Chocolate Chips will add more texture and more chocolate flavor.
Ice Cream Cones: I love putting my ice cream into a bowl or to serve in a cone.
How To Make Rocky Road Ice Cream
Step 1. Chill your loaf pan in the freezer while you prepare your ice cream. Add the heavy cream into a large mixing bowl and beat until stiff with peaks. Place the almonds, ½ tablespoons of chocolate chips, and 2 tablespoons of marshmallows aside and add the rest of the ingredients into the heavy cream.
Step 2. Take the loaf pan out of the freezer and add the ice cream. Put the ingredients you set aside on top of the prepared ice cream.
Step 3. Put the pan into the freezer to chill for 6-8 hours until set. To serve, add a few scoops of the ice cream into a bowl or a scoop into an ice cream cone. Enjoy!
