Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
Chocolate Chip Ice Cream is the ice cream recipe I make the most. It is my granddaughters favorite ice cream. I make it just like my vanilla ice cream except I add milk chocolate chips. My grandson prefers vanilla ice cream over the chocolate chip ice cream so what I do is make vanilla ice cream for him and let my granddaughter add the chocolate chips just to her bowl…..win-win situation! I buy a big bag of mini milk chocolate chips from Amish Country. They are so much cheaper from Amish Country and they are delicious.
I make this recipe in my Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker which I love. However, you do not need an ice cream maker to make ice cream. It is creamier in the ice cream maker than when you mix it by hand but it will taste the same. Just follow your ice cream maker instructions.
To make it by hand: Once you mix all of the ice cream ingredients together, see recipe card below, let it cool in the pan on a tray of ice. Once cool place it in the refrigerator, covered, for about 4-6 hours. Stir it and pour it into a covered freezer container. Place it in the freezer. Stir every 30 minutes. The outside edges will start to freeze first. You want to mix the frozen edges back into the liquid. Continue until all of the liquid has frozen. Stir as well as you can to make it creamy. Once it is set to a soft serve type of ice cream, you can stop stirring. Freeze another 4-6 hours and serve with your favorite topping.

It looks delicious! 🙂 Nice for hot days.
Thank you! We eat it all year long….lol
Good to know but my freezers are packed full as we live in rural forest glade far from the madding crowd shop only once a month or longer than 3 months in winter as snow and cars dont mix. We can drive in snow but not five feet deep.
Oh my goodness!
Yay, I love ice cream!
I thought you would like this post!
Loved it!!!!!! Chocolate chip is my fav.
My White House Cherry recipe is my favorite so far, but then again…..is there a bad ice cream…haha
Yes, agreed….!!!!I guess that’s love for ice cream
Yes it is! Thank you for commenting!!
Heya! I’m at work browsing your blog from my new iphone! Just wanted to say I love reading your blog and look forward to all your posts! Carry on the outstanding work!
Thank you for stopping by!
Yikes! I’m salivating now.
LOL it’s so good!
The texture looks perfect, great share indeed!
Thank you! Bought my ice cream maker at a Goodwill for I think $10.00. It looked like it had never been used. Score!
wow That is definitely a good deal!!
I was thrilled!
My family has made ice-cream before. It was very delicious – I liked it better than the store-bought, though the store-bought was pretty good and I still like it.
Nothing can top homemade ice cream and it is my favorite dessert. If I made this recipe I might add a few cherries…I really like cherries and chocolate together.
OMG I never thought of that! Whitehouse Cherry Ice Cream is what I always buy at our local Ice Cream Parlor! But I never thought of chocolate chips too! Thanks!!!!
You are welcome. Yummy stuff.
I tried this in my cruisineart ice cream maker. It’s the best ice cream I’ve made so far.so simple, and absolutely fantastic. I liked it much better than the custard style ice creams made with egg yolks, and it had a much creamier, yet firmer texture. Thank you Diane.
Isn’t it wonderful! I am so glad you liked it Chris! You are so welcome!
I have two old White Mountain ice cream freezers that belonged to my parents and grandparents. I found another one in a shed but it is rusty inside. I love ice cream! My favorite is Blue Bunny Peanut Butter Party. 🙂
Oh I love that name! Is it blueberry ice cream with peanut butter? I grow blueberries and have a freezer full of gallon bags of them.
Blue Bunny’s Peanut Butter Party is vanilla icecream as a base with peanut butter and fudge swirls with peanut butter cups. I remember years ago Baskin Robbins had blueberry ice cream. It was so delicious!
Oh yes our local ice cream parlor has that too only they call it something else. It is one of my favorites and when you get to those little peanut butter cups….yum!
