Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a small bowl, dissolve 2 tbsp instant coffee granules in 2 tbsp hot water until smooth. Let cool slightly.
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, whisk together 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk, the cooled coffee mixture, and 1 tsp vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. Step 3: In a separate chilled bowl, beat 2 cups heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Step 4: Gently fold the whipped cream into the coffee and condensed milk mixture in three additions, being careful not to deflate the cream.
  5. Step 5: Fold in 3 oz chopped dark chocolate chunks evenly.
  6. Step 6: Pour the mixture into a 9x5-inch loaf pan, smooth the top, cover with plastic wrap, and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until firm. Scoop and serve chilled.
