Ingredients

  • 14 oz condensed milk (397g)
  • 2.5 cups heavy cream double cream (600ml)
  • ¼ tsp vanilla bean paste or 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup dark chocolate roughly chopped (100g)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Put the heavy cream, condensed milk, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer until really thick, smooth and resembles soft peaks.
  2. Roughly chop the dark chocolate, you want there to be tiny pieces and some larger chunks and fold it through the gelato mixture.
  3. Transfer the stracciatella gelato to a freezer proof container, cover with a lid and freeze for 6 hours to overnight. Remove the gelato for the freezer around 10 minutes before serving!

Notes

  • Cream - Make sure to use heavy cream so it whips up nice and thick.
  • Chocolate - Use high-quality dark chocolate if possible for the best flavour.
  • Vanilla - I love to use vanilla bean paste which gives you a beautiful vanilla favour and tiny black speckles throughout the gelato but you can also use vanilla extract just don't use vanilla essence which is artificial flavouring.
