Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream using a hand mixer until soft peaks form (about 3–5 minutes).

If using cocoa powder or berries, fold them in now until fully combined.

Notes

Tips for Creamier Texture

Use powdered sweetener to avoid graininess.
Add a splash of vodka (1 tbsp) to prevent the ice cream from freezing too hard.
Stir halfway through freezing for better texture if not using an ice cream maker.
