Kim’s homemade coffee ice cream with chocolate chips is the simple but decadent dessert you have been searching for all Summer long.
Homemade coffee ice cream is a household favorite with our family. It’s the only time in which our son is allowed to have anything coffee related. This recipe is a great option when you want a smooth and creamy coffee flavored dessert.
Where we live, finding an espresso style ice cream is a chore. That’s why we decided to start making a homemade coffee ice cream. I am very pleased with this dish because it is so smooth and tasty. Unlike other store bought brands, it has a soft-serve texture.
You know what I mean? Other brands have that “rough” feeling on your tongue. Almost like they have been frozen to the point the milk fat turns hard and chewy. Our homemade coffee ice cream doesn’t have that problem. It’s soft and luxurious, like velvet.
The coffee flavor really shines with this homemade coffee ice cream recipe. It cuts through the sweetness without being overpowering and making everything bitter. The chocolate chips freeze and add a little texture variety to the dessert.
In closing, I highly recommend making our homemade coffee ice cream for your family and friends. It’s cold, creamy, smooth, and delicious! The perfect dessert to cool you down after a day in the Summer sunshine. As always, I wish everyone a long life, a healthy future, and tummy filled with ice cream.

Homemade Coffee Ice Cream with Chocolate Chips
Ingredients
- 2 Cups Heavy Cream
- 1 14 Ounce Can of Sweetened Condensed Milk
- 1/4 Cup Cold Brew Coffee
- 4 Ounces Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
Instructions
- First, in a stand mixer or large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until it starts to form stiff peaks.
- Next, add the sweetened condensed milk and coffee to the whipped cream and mix the ingredients on low speed with a mixer until everything is well-combined.
- After that step, gently fold in the chocolate chips and transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container.
- Last, cover the container with plastic wrap or a lid, and place the ice cream in your freezer for at least six hours. For best results, let the dessert freeze overnight, because once the dish is frozen, it is ready to serve.

This recipe looks fantastic. I have a couple of questions: Can this be made in an ice cream making machine? Would heavy cream mean 35%MF (things are a bit different here in Canada!)? By the way, we just love coffee ice cream – looking forward to trying this gem of a recipe!
Kimberly
Hi, Terri! Yes, heavy cream contains approximately 35% milk fat. We’ve never tried to make this recipe in an ice maker, but I think it should work. However, it may change the consistency a bit. Most of the ice cream maker recipes I’ve seen use whole milk and sugar instead of sweetened condensed milk. If you decide to give it a try, we’d love to know how it turns out. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!
Danielle
Yes to everything about this! I love how easy this is to make and it’s a cooling way to get my coffee fix.
John
Thank you, Danielle! We hope you try out the coffee one day. Have a wonderful Saturday 🙂

Ugh, this looks fantastic! My fiance and I are big coffee drinkers, and only recently converted to cold brew as our morning cup. It just makes the coffee so much sweeter and more indulgent than regular old hot coffee, and it just seems like the perfect addition to delicious coffee ice cream! Yours looks a like like a gelato in texture, which I love. We will have to try this one out soon!
John
Thank you, Beth! We just started using cold brew recently, as well. It’s perfect for frozen coffee drinks and cooking. We hope you give it a try some time. Have a wonderful Saturday 🙂

Anyone who knows me is aware of my ice cream obsession! This homemade ice cream looks incredibly delicious. I can’t wait to make a batch or two!
John
Thank you, Cait! Us too and really enjoyed this recipe. We hope you like it as well. Have a wonderful weekend 🙂
Bailey
This combines two of my favorite things – ice cream and coffee!
John
Thank you, Bailey! Us as well, have a lovely Friday 🙂
Brigette Collins
COFFEE + ICE CREAM!!! One of my favorite combos!

Julie Torres
Wow, wow, wow, this looks incredible and so easy, certainly going to try!
John
Thank you, Julie! We hope you enjoy the ice cream. Have a lovely Friday 🙂
Delphine
I’m not a coffee drinker but I quite like the flavour in ice-cream or cakes, I don’t know why… I really like the idea of mixing chocolate chips in the coffee ice cream.
John
Thank you, Delphine! Coffee can be a “rough” drink if it’s not flavored properly. Sugar makes everything taste better lol! Thanks for commenting and have a lovely day 🙂
Sarah
This looks delicious, I love coffee ice cream especially if it has chocolate chips in it 🙂

Jolina
I’m not a coffee drinker but I love coffee desserts. Weird huh? 🙂 This looks so good! I love making homemade ice cream, in fact I can’t remember the last time we bought those big gallons of ice cream from the store anymore. They are so much better homemade IMO! Can’t wait to try your recipe. It will happen sometime this summer for sure.
John
Thank you, Jolina! I don’t think it’s weird. Coffee can be really bitter if it’s not properly flavored. We hardly buy ice cream anymore too. Since we don’t have an ice cream maker, we needed a no churn ice cream. I am glad you liked our recipe and hope you enjoy it when you make it. Thank you again for commenting, Jolina! I hope you have a lovely Friday and a great weekend 🙂
Sam
I love that you incorporated actual cold brew coffee into the recipe. Feel like omost coffee-flavored recipes are only based on the fact that they have espresso powder included. Thanks, I’m trying this out soon!
John
Thank you, Sam! We had the cold brew left over from another post and decided to use it for this. I wasn’t aware coffee flavored ice cream has espresso powder in it. That seems so odd when you can just use a cold brew or chilled regular brew. Thanks for sharing that information and I hope you have a wonderful Friday 🙂

Man I wish I brought my ice cream maker with me *sigh*
John
Thank you, Natalie! Well, you’re in luck because this one does not need an ice cream maker. Have a lovely Thursday 🙂
Dominique | Perchance to Cook
Oh wow! What a great use for cold brew! Coffee icecream is one of my favorites and chocolate chip is my husband’s favorite… so this would be perfect for the both of us!
John
Thank you, Dominique! We had some left over from sponsored post and decided to use it instead of fresh brew. We hope you try the recipe. Have a lovely day 🙂
