Instructions
Chill Your Equipment
Place your mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for 10–15 minutes. This helps the heavy cream whip up faster and fluffier.
Whip the Cream
Pour the cold heavy whipping cream into your chilled bowl. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. The texture should be light and fluffy, like whipped cream.
Fold in Sweetened Condensed Milk and Flavoring
Using a spatula, gently fold the sweetened condensed milk and the black cherry flavoring into the whipped cream. Take your time—slow folding helps keep the mixture airy.
Add Cherries
Carefully fold in the sliced cherries. They’ll add texture, flavor, and a beautiful swirl of deep red.
Freeze
Transfer the mixture into a freezer-safe container. Smooth the top and cover tightly. Freeze overnight, or for at least 6 hours, until fully set.
Scoop & Serve
Once frozen, scoop your black cherry ice cream into cones or bowls. Garnish with extra cherries, chocolate curls, or whipped cream if you like.
