Chocolate great love story. If you are like me and you never resist a good chocolate ice cream , you will love what the Ninja Creami can do. Whether you like your intense chocolate, soft or even in vegan version, this machine allows you to create ultra-glued chocolate ice cream at home. Believe me, it's much better than anything you can buy in store.
Here are my favorite recipes for homemade chocolate ice cream with the Ninja Creami, to test absolutely!
1. Intense chocolate ice cream
When we talk about chocolate , some like it to be well full . If you are like me and you like a rich and strong chocolate, this recipe is made for you. She uses unwelling cocoa for an explosion of chocolate flavors with each spoon.
What you need:
- 70 ml of whole cream (or almond milk for a lighter version)
- 250 ml of half skimmed milk
- 4 tablespoons of cocoa in sweet powder
- 3 tablespoons of agave syrup (or honey, depending on your taste)
- A pinch of salt
How to do:
mix all the ingredients in a bowl until you get a smooth and homogeneous preparation. Always taste before freezing to adjust the sugar (I always do it). Pour everything into the pot of Ninja Creami , lets freezer for 24 hours, then lets the machine transform it into an intense and creamy chocolate . And if the texture is not soft enough to your taste, a little stroke of re-spin , and it's perfect!
Personal tip: for even more delicacy, I sometimes add bursts of dark chocolate or crushed nuts before freezing. It gives a crunchy side that contrasts perfectly with the creamy texture.
2. Chocolate-hazelnut ice cream (Nutella manner)
hazelnut spread , you will like this recipe. It's like an nutella , but much better, because you know exactly what you put in it! The Ninja Creami transforms this chocolate-black combination into an ultra-on-one ice that always makes happy at home.
What you need:
- 300 ml of hazelnut milk (or almond milk to vary)
- 5 tablespoons of hazelnut paste (or hazelnut butter)
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 to 2 tablespoons of maple syrup
How to do:
mix everything until you get a smooth paste. As always, I taste before freezing to adjust the sweetness. Pour into the pot of Ninja Creami, freezes 24 hours, then lets the machine do the rest. And if you want a little more crunch, adds bursts of hazelnuts or a few chocolate chips before serving.
My tip: I sometimes sprinkle a little cocoa on top of the ice just before serving. It adds a nice visual touch and further strengthens the taste of chocolate.
3. Chocolate-banana ice cream
If you have never tried the chocolate-banana combination , you miss something magical. The banana adds a natural sweetness that perfectly balances chocolate, while bringing an incredibly creamy texture. And the best? No need for a lot of sugar because the banana does all the work.
What you need:
- 2 ripe banana
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 200 ml of almond or coconut milk (of your choice)
- A net of agave syrup if necessary (the banana is already sweet)
How to do:
mix all the ingredients together. Once you have a very homogeneous puree, pours into the ninja Creami jar, freezes for 24 hours, and presto, you have a chocolate-banana ice cream ready to be devoured. The texture is always super creamy thanks to banana, and chocolate gives this touch of gluttony that we love.
My personal tip: if you want a little extra, adds slices of fresh bananas on top or a mesh of melted chocolate before serving. It's just divine!
4. Vegan chocolate ice cream
No lactose, no problem! If you are looking for a vegan of your favorite chocolate ice cream, the Ninja Creami is perfect for that. Thanks to coconut milk, you get an ice cream as creamy as the classic versions, without the need for animal products. In addition, it is naturally greedy thanks to the mixture of chocolate and coconut.
What you need:
- 200 ml coconut milk
- 100 ml of vegetable milk
- 4 tablespoons of cocoa in sweet powder
- 3 tablespoons of agave syrup or maple syrup
- A pinch of salt
How to do:
mix all the ingredients, as usual, then pour it all into the Creami ninja jar. After 24 hours of freezing, let the machine transform this mixture into a creamy and tasty vegan chocolate ice cream And if you want a little more texture, adds chips of grilled coconut before serving.
