Chocolate Ice Cream

Things this simple shouldn't taste so good. Seriously, wow.

5.00 /5 ★★★★★

This ice cream is so smooth, rich, and creamy I don't need to buy ice cream ever again. Maybe I'm getting a little ahead of myself — but this is good. It doesn't take a lot to have enough either. Similar to the vanilla ice cream, because it's so rich and heavy you're satisfied after just a few bites. A perfect post-dinner dessert.

Just make sure you have something to put it in before you make it.

Final Score 5.00 / 5

A perfect score across the board. It's one more ingredient than the vanilla ice cream and it somehow hits harder. Rich, creamy, no cooking, no ice cream maker, barely any cleanup. This one earned it.
