Chocolate-raspberry ice cream is an explosion of flavors where the intense taste of chocolate meets the tangy sweetness of raspberries. This blend offers a perfect balance between creaminess and freshness, ideal for lovers of indulgent and fruity desserts.
Ingredients :
- 200g dark chocolate (or milk chocolate, depending on your preference)
- 150 ml of whole liquid cream
- 150 ml of whole milk
- 2 tablespoons agave syrup (or adjust to taste)
- 120g of fresh or frozen raspberries
- 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder (optional to intensify the chocolate flavor)
- 1 small pinch of salt (optional)
Preparation :
- Melt the chocolate.
Melt the chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave. Stir well until smooth. - Mix the ingredients.
In a blender, combine the melted chocolate, heavy cream, milk, agave syrup, cocoa powder (if using), and a pinch of salt. Blend well until smooth and creamy. - Pour into the Ninja Creami container.
Transfer this chocolate base into the Ninja Creami container, without the raspberries for now. Be careful not to exceed the MAX FILL , then place in the freezer for 24 hours . - Add the raspberries using the Mix-In function.
Once the chocolate ice cream is ready using the "Ice Cream" , add the raspberries (fresh or frozen) to the container. Use the "Mix-In" to gently fold the raspberries in without completely crushing them. This will add delicious pieces of raspberry to the ice cream. - Respin Tip:
If the texture is still a little firm after the "Ice Cream" cycle, use the "Respin" to smooth the ice cream. Add approximately 30 ml of milk if necessary.
My Personal Tip:
This chocolate-raspberry ice cream is perfect for lovers of intense chocolate. For an even more indulgent treat, you can top it with dark or white chocolate chips, or add a drizzle of raspberry coulis for an extra fruity touch. If you'd like a bit of crunch, toasted hazelnuts or slivered almonds will do the trick perfectly.
Chocolate-raspberry ice cream is a smooth and indulgent dessert, with a lovely touch of freshness thanks to the raspberry pieces. With Ninja Creami, you get a silky texture and fruit pieces that add a welcome hint of acidity. A delight in every bite!
