Quick Walk Through: Baileys Chocolate Ice Cream

Why You’ll Love This Ice Cream
I’ve made ice cream before, but it never froze well. Grainy, crystallized ice cream is no fun for anybody. And that’s the biggest problem with making ice cream at home. But this Baileys Chocolate Ice Cream isn’t like that at all. The ice cream is creamy, easily scoopable without any crystals and the best part – it’s extra chocolatey! There is definitely a hit from the Baileys and somehow the bananas elevate the chocolate flavor. Don’t get worried because I said bananas. Trust me, you won’t taste them.

Hey! I used some regular cream. Heavy cream is best if you can source it though
