How To Make No Churn Black Forest Ice Cream
All you need are just SIX ingredients:
- Heavy Cream
- Sweetened Condensed Milk
- Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- Cherries and/ or Cherry Pie Filling (I used both but you can choose one to keep this a FIVE-ingredient recipe)
- Your favorite Brownies (homemade from scratch, box mix or store-bought)
Black Forest Cake is one of those desserts that I remember from childhood. Our neighbor used to make it every year around the holidays and would always invite us over to share.
It was one of the best desserts ever – so decadent, chocolatey and super delicious. The whipped cream topping made it so incredibly light and dreamy-licious.
This homemade ice cream is a much easier way to enjoy that Black Forest Cake.
You can use either fresh cherries, cherry pie filling or a combination of both which is what I did. I also left out the kirsch to keep it kid-friendly but you can totally add some in if you’d like.
Creamy, cool and decadent with all the black forest goodness.
