Written by Liz –

Who doesn’t love chocolate ice cream? So fitting that this indulgent holiday happens just at the start of summer, it’s a perfect excuse to kick off ice cream making at my house. To celebrate chocolate ice cream day, here are three different ways to savor chocolate ice cream (or chocolate + ice cream) today, and all summer long.

Abuelita Ice Cream

Make your own chocolate ice cream, with Abuelita’s special chocolatey cinnamon flavor shown above. It’s easy and fun!

Ingredients for 6 cups:

2 cans (7.6 fluid ounces each) NESTLÉ Media Crema Ligera Lite Table Cream
4 tablets (90 grams each) NESTLÉ ABUELITA Chocolate, chopped
2 1/2 cups lowfat milk

Directions:

HEAT media crema and Abuelita chocolate in medium, heavy-duty saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until chocolate is completely dissolved and mixture is smooth. Remove from heat; stir in milk.

POUR mixture into 13 x 9-inch baking pan; cover with plastic wrap. Freeze, stirring every hour to break up ice crystals, for 4 to 5 hours or until set.

Caramel Macchiato Ice Cream Pie

As the Nestlé Kitchens Pie Recipe Contest winner, this Caramel Macchiato Ice Cream Pie is a refreshing summer treat. Milisa Armstrong uses Dreyer’s or Edy’s Grand Coffee Ice Cream to create a delightfully grown-up taste.

Frozen Chocolate Jitterbug

Just the name alone makes me want to make this mocha-like shake above. Frozen Chocolate Jitterbug is a refreshing combination of chocolate and coffee in a chilled beverage that is great as a pick-me-up.
