🍊 Putting a Spin On Traditional Flavor


There once was a fabulous little ice cream shack and it is deeply tragic that it has since closed down, however, some of the best entrepreneurs are usually able to find a way to rebuild and I faithfully believe that the people who ran this ice cream brand will find another way to rebuild if they haven’t already.

Ingredients

  • 1- 1/3 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/3 cup cacao powder (Sub in cocoa powder if you don't have cacao powder. See product suggestions below.)
  • 1 teaspoon Himalayan sea salt
  • 1- 1/2 cups Whole Milk
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • 1 quarter cup Orange Juice
  • 1 cup Chocolate Chips
  • 1/3 cup Orange Zest
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 tablespoon Orange Oil
Instructions

If using an ice cream maker, prep your ice cream machine 24-hours before making this recipe. Make sure to add the freezer bowl from your ice cream machine to the freezer at least 4-hours before making this recipe, or even better 24-hours.
Add the sugar, cinnamon,cacao powder Himalayan sea salt to a mixing bowl and combine.
Add the milk, heavy cream, orange juice, vanilla extract, orange oil to the sugar mixture and combine.
Melt the dark chocolate chips in a glass bowl over steamed water or in a microwave until the chocolate is melted. Add in the fresh orange zest and combine.
Add the melted chocolate to the prepared ice cream mixture and add everything to a stand mixer and mix on the medium setting or gently hand mix.
Let the prepared ice cream mixture sit in the fridge for an hour to firm up before adding it to your ice cream machine.
Turn on the ice cream maker, pour the ice cream mixture into the freezer bowl and mix until thickened, about 25-35 minutes. Since we froze the freezer bowl 24-hours prior, the ice cream should have a nice, thick consistency and should be ready to eat.
Transfer to a bowl, add some more fresh orange zest, and enjoy!
The ice cream will keep in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 6-months. Make ice cream ahead and enjoy this delicious dessert all summer long!
Tips
  • If using an ice cream machine, prep your ice cream machine 24-hours before making this recipe. Make sure to add the freezer bowl from your ice cream machine to the freezer at least 4-hours before making this recipe, or even better 24-hours. If the freezer bowl only froze for a few hours beforehand, immediately transfer the prepared ice cream to an airtight container or a metal loaf pan, like the one you see in the pictures.
