No ice cream maker is needed for this easy, egg-free chocolate-cherry ice cream that's perfect as a summer treat.

Ingredients

1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup fresh sweet cherries, pitted and cut into quarters
3/4 cup chocolate chunks
2 cups heavy whipping cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 cup fresh sweet cherries, pitted and cut into eighths
1/4 cup chocolate chunks

Directions

1 Stir together sweetened condensed milk and cocoa powder for ice cream in a large bowl, then add in cherries and chocolate chunks.
2 Beat cream and vanilla extract in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
3 Carefully fold whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture until fully combined.
4 Split the mixture between two loaf pans and garnish with cherries and chocolate.
5 Press plastic wrap onto the surface of the mixture so it rests on top, and put another sheet across the sides of the pans.
6 Freeze until firm, about 8 hours.
