Spicy Chocolate Ice Cream is cold, creamy chocolate with a hint of spicy heat from chili and cinnamon.
This ice cream warms your mouth even as you are chilled from the ice cream. The combination of heat with the cold is fantastic.
When some friends requested a chocolate and chili ice cream combination last year, I was excited to finally try it for myself.
At the very first taste, I was happy that we were planning to share this ice cream with them and avoid the temptation of eating the entire recipe myself! The ice cream has received rave reviews from everyone who tasted it.

I’ve made this ice cream over a dozen times now. Spicy Chocolate Ice Cream is my husband’s favorite and in over a year of making it, this is the first time I’ve managed to get a photo of it.
He loves to give it away to friends and it still disappears lightning fast every time it is in the house.
The most popular question I get is whether it’s possible to make ice cream without a machine. The answer is YES. You can make ice cream without a machine. Find the full directions here!
