No Churn Black Forest Ice Cream

I'm not a huge ice cream person, but black forest is one of my favorite flavors. 

I first had it at a restaurant when I was living in Iowa, and I've never found another place that serves it. Since no churn ice cream is so easy to make, I decided to make my own version of that ice cream.

The chocolate base of this no churn black forest ice cream tastes almost like a frosty. It's not overly chocolaty and sort of light and fluffy.

I use leftover homemade brownies in the ice cream, but any brownies will do. And the pieces of fresh cherry add some yummy tartness to the mix.

• ▢ 2 cups cold heavy whipping cream

• ▢ 1 ½ cups fresh pitted and chopped cherries

• In a separate large bowl, whisk together the condensed milk and cocoa powder until well-combined.
• Fold 1 cup whipped cream into milk mixture.
• Fold in remaining whipped cream.
• Remove container from freezer, and pour half of the ice cream mixture into container.
