Instructions to Make Coffee Ice Cream:
-
Prepare the Ice Cream Mixture:
- Begin by placing the fresh cream, milk, sugar, instant coffee powder, and vanilla extract into a blender. Blend the ingredients until smooth and well combined.
- Ensure that both the cream and milk are chilled before adding to the blender. This step is crucial for the texture of the ice cream. If the mixture feels warm, refrigerate it for about two hours before proceeding.

Set Up Your Ice Cream Maker:
- For best results, use a Kitchenif Ice Cream Maker. Before using the machine, make sure the ice cream bowl has been stored in the freezer for at least two days to ensure it is cold enough for churning.
- Attach the paddle to the ice cream maker, then place the ice cream bowl inside the machine.
-
Churn the Ice Cream:
- Set the timer on the ice cream maker for 30 minutes. Slowly pour the chilled ice cream mixture into the machine through the opening while the paddle is moving.
- Do not turn off the machine during the churning process. Let it run for the full 30 minutes. As the mixture churns, you’ll notice the ice cream becoming thick and creamy.
-
Freeze the Ice Cream:
- Once the churning process is complete, transfer the ice cream into a bowl. Cover the bowl and place it in the freezer for 5 to 6 hours to allow it to firm up and freeze completely.
-
Serving the Coffee Ice Cream:
- After the ice cream has frozen and hardened, scoop it into bowls or cones and serve immediately.
- Enjoy this indulgent coffee ice cream as a dessert after a wonderful continental meal of Cheesy Baked Spaghetti Pasta in Tomato Basil Sauce and Garlic Bread.
Tips for the Perfect Coffee Ice Cream:
- If you prefer a stronger coffee flavor, feel free to add a little more instant coffee powder, adjusting to your personal taste.
- For an extra indulgent twist, you can add chocolate chips, crushed nuts, or a swirl of caramel during the last few minutes of churning.
- This recipe can be easily customized by switching the vanilla extract for a coffee liqueur to enhance the flavor profile.
