Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Pour the mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a clean bowl to remove any cooked egg bits.
Let the mixture cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Churn the Ice Cream:
Once chilled, churn the mixture in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
When the ice cream is almost finished churning (about 5 minutes before it’s done), add in the chocolate shavings.
Freeze the Ice Cream:
Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
Serve:
Scoop the coffee ice cream into bowls or cones and enjoy! Optionally, garnish with additional chocolate shavings or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.
Tips
No Ice Cream Maker? You can still make this ice cream without a machine. Pour the chilled mixture into a shallow dish and freeze. Every 30 minutes, stir the mixture with a fork for about 3-4 hours to break up ice crystals until it’s creamy.
Adjusting Flavor: Feel free to adjust the amount of instant coffee according to your taste preferences. You can also add espresso for a stronger coffee flavor.
Add-ins: Consider adding nuts, toffee bits, or coffee-flavored liqueurs for extra texture and flavor.
