Creamy red velvet ice cream, swirled with a sweet cream cheese frosting.

Ingredients

  • Recommended Equipment

  • Ball Mason Jar

  • Electric Handheld Mixer

  • For the Red Velvet Base

  • 3 Tbsps + 1 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream

  • 1/4 Cup Sugar

  • 1/2 tsp Vinegar

  • 1/4 Cup Chocolate Chips

  • Red Food Gel

  • For the Cream Cheese Swirl

  • 1/4 Cup Cream Cheese

  • 2 Tbsps White Chocolate Chips

  • 1 Tbsp Heavy Whipping Cream

Directions

  • In a microwave safe bowl combine the chocolate chips and 3 tablespoons of heavy whipping cream. Microwave the chocolate for 20 seconds, until melted. Use a spoon to stir the chocolate until completely smooth and there are no chocolate clumps.
  • In a mason jar, combine the heavy whipping cream, sugar, melted chocolate mixture, vinegar, and red food coloring.
  • Put the lid on the jar and shake it for about 30 seconds until the ice cream is mixed.
  • In a microwave safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and heavy whipping cream.
  • Microwave the white chocolate for 20 seconds, until melted. Use a spoon to stir the chocolate until smooth.
  • Add the cream cheese and melted white chocolate to a bowl. Use an electric hand mixer, to mix the white chocolate and cream cheese until completely smooth.
  • Pour a quarter of the red velvet ice cream into a jar, then layer in some of the cream cheese mixture. Add in more red velvet ice cream, and then more cream cheese mixture. Repeat the process until the jar is full.
  • Place the ice cream in the freezer and freeze for 6 hours or until completely frozen.
  • Once frozen, scoop and enjoy!

Notes

  • Why vinegar in ice cream? What makes Red Velvet so unique (aside from the fact that it’s red) is that it has a chocolate base, but it doesn’t taste like chocolate, because the the Red Velvet flavor has more acidity in it. Normally the acidity in a red velvet recipe is derived from buttermilk, but buttermilk in ice cream would be terrible! So to create the unique red velvet flavor in ice cream, we add a touch of vinegar which adds acidity, without being overpowering, and in turn, this creates the unique Red Velvet flavor we all love so much.
