Homemade Rocky Road Ice Cream is creamy chocolate and almond-flavored ice cream loaded with chewy marshmallows, crunchy almonds, and flecks of chocolate.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup sugar
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1½ cups heavy cream
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup sliced almonds
- 1 cup miniature marshmallows
Instructions
Whisk together the sugar, cocoa, and salt in a medium-size saucepan. Add the cream and milk, stir, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat while stirring frequently. Lower the heat and simmer for 2 minutes.
Remove from the heat and add the chocolate chips, vanilla, and almond extract. Stir to dissolve the chocolate. Let cool and then refrigerate for at least 6 hours, until cold.
Pour the chilled mixture into your ice cream machine and freeze according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
When it has finished churning, transfer to a freezer-safe airtight container, add the marshmallows and almonds and stir to combine. Cover and freeze until ready to serve. Enjoy!
