Ingredients
Scale
For the Ice Cream Base:
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- ¾ cup sugar
- ¼ cup malted milk powder
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons instant espresso powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
For Churned Ice Cream:
- 4 large egg yolks
For No-Churn Ice Cream:

Instructions
Churned Method:
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, whisk together the milk, sugar, cocoa powder, espresso powder, and malted milk powder until everything is dissolved.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks. Slowly pour about ½ cup of the warm milk mixture into the yolks, whisking constantly.
- Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring until it thickens slightly (it should coat the back of a spoon).
- Remove from heat and stir in the heavy cream, vanilla, and salt.
- Let the mixture cool completely, then chill for at least 4 hours (or overnight).
- Churn in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Transfer to a container and freeze until firm.
No-Churn Method:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, espresso powder, malted milk powder, vanilla, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream to stiff peaks.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture.
- Pour into a loaf pan or container, cover, and freeze for at least 6 hours.
