Ingredients you’ll need
Here’s a list of ingredients you’ll need to make this ice cream. You can find my recipe card at the bottom of this post for the complete list with their amounts.
- Instant coffee granules: Use your favourite coffee for the best tasting ice cream.
- Double OR heavy cream
- Sweetened condensed milk
- Dark chocolate: If desired, you could also use milk or semi-sweet chocolate instead.
How to make No-Churn Coffee Ice Cream
To make this ice cream, simply start by preparing the coffee. In a small bowl or jug, dissolve the instant coffee granules in 1/4 cup (60ml) of hot water. Set aside.
In a separate large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks. You can use a handheld or stand mixer for this, but if you don’t have them, you can easily get it done by using a hand whisk.
Add the sweetened condensed milk and coffee, and whisk in until fully combined. Fold in the dark chocolate.
Pour the mixture into a 9×5-inch loaf pan, and cover tightly. Place in the freezer for at least 6 hours, or overnight before serving.

NOTE: For best results, I highly recommend using the gram measurements (with a digital scale), rather than the cup measurements.
Cup measurements are simply not accurate enough, and I cannot guarantee the best results if you use them.

I bought an electric ice cream churner but have never used it. Would it work to churn this recipe? I presume it would be done quicker.

So gooood! I used Kuluha in place of the water as the alcohol prevents ice crystals from forming. My husband can’t decide which he likes better—this one or the No-churn key lime pie ice cream made with Oreo cookies instead of graham crackers.

I love making no churn ice cream. One thing I do differently is adding a small amount of one or more ingredients that contain alcohol. Vanilla extract contains alcohol and I put 2 Tbs. in almost every ice cream I make. For coffee ice cream I also put 2 Tbs. of an inexpensive coffee liqueur. They don't affect the taste very much and you won't even notice the alcohol. But the alcohol lowers the freezing point so the ice cream doesn't freeze as hard as it would otherwise. Which makes for easy scooping.
And I go pretty varied on crunchy additions. I'm more like to put broken/crushed Bischoff cookies in my coffee ice cream because I love that flavor combination more than chocolate, but this is a strictly please your own taste thing.

So simple but fabulous. For ease I added dark chocolate chips and doubled up on the coffee as we like a strong flavour. The whole family loved it. Thanks for the recipe.

I made this and it was delicious. It was a HUGE hit and tasted as good as an expensive store bought ice cream. Thank you for sharing the recipe!
