Equipment

  • 1 stand mixer with whisk attachment or hand mixer with beaters
  • 1 8 cup capacity freezer proof container
  • 1 small microwave safe bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups (474 ml) heavy cream, cold
  • ¾ cup (370 g) Nutella, divided
  • 14 oz. canned sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tsp (5 ml) vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp salt

Instructions
 

  • Pour the heavy cream into a mixing bowl. Beat on medium speed to medium peaks with a whisk attachment (or beaters).
    2 cups (474 ml) heavy cream, cold
  • In a separate bowl melt ½ cup (148 g) Nutella in the microwave in 30 second increment for 30 - 60 seconds. The chocoate hazelnut spread should become runny. 
    ¾ cup (370 g) Nutella, divided
  • Whisk the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract and salt into the melted Nutella until well combined. 
    14 oz. canned sweetened condensed milk, 2 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract , ¼ teaspoon salt
  • Pour the sweetened mixture into the whipped heavy cream and mix on low until combined. 
  • Layer the homemade ice cream with ¼ cup (74 g) of more melted Nutella into a freezer proof container. I like to do two layers of homemade ice cream topped with a swirl of melted Nutella. 
  • Transfer the ice cream to the freezer to set for 1-2 hours. Then cover the entire container in plastic wrap and a layer of foil. Freeze the ice cream for at least 8 hours, but preferably overnight.
  • Pull the ice cream out to sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes, scoop and enjoy!

Notes

Store the Nutella ice cream in an airtight and freezer proof container in the freezer for up to 2 months.
