To make a homemade ice cream, you will need the following ingredients: heavy cream, sugar, and an optional flavor of your choice. Begin by combining 1/2 cup of the heavy cream with 2 tablespoons of sugar in a bowl and whisk together until the sugar has dissolved. If desired, add in any additional flavors such as cocoa powder or vanilla extract. Place the mixture into the freezer for about 30 minutes until it begins to thicken up. Once it has thickened, remove from the freezer and mix in the remaining 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Pour the mixture back into the freezer and continue freezing for another hour or two, stirring every 15-20 minutes. Once finished, the ice cream is ready to serve!
