Ingredients

1 cup milk (organic grass-fed 2%)
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream (organic)
4 tbsp cocoa powder (unsweetened, organic - make sure it is unsweetened!!!)
1/4 cup maple syrup (organic)
1/8 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp vanilla extract (organic)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the mixture

1
In a Ninja Creami pint container, whisk together all ingredients until fully combined.

Step 2: Freeze the base

2
Secure the lid and freeze the pint for at least 24 hours on a flat surface. The mixture must be completely frozen solid before processing.

Step 3: Process in your machine

3
Ninja CREAMi (original model): Place the frozen pint in the outer bowl, lock the lid, and run the Ice Cream function.
4
Ninja CREAMi Deluxe 11-in-1 Soft Serve Maker (new model): Insert the pint and run the Soft Serve Ice Cream function. Then you can dispense your ice cream on the soft serve side.

Step 4: Adjust texture if needed

5
If your ice cream looks crumbly after the first spin, select the Re-Spin function. This usually happens if your ice cream is super cold but a simple re-spin should do the trick and make it extra creamy.

Step 5: Serve & enjoy

6
Scoop (or swirl!) your homemade chocolate soft serve into bowls or cones.
