This is an easy chocolate ice cream recipe that we've used in my family for years. It's a way to make ice cream without cooking the mixture (except a brief bit in the microwave) or using an ice cream freezer.

    With electric mixer on medium-high speed, whip cream to soft peaks, about 2 minutes. Whisk one-third of whipped cream into chocolate mixture. Fold remaining whipped cream into chocolate mixture until incorporated.
