Today is National Coffee Ice Cream Day! I had this particular recipe and video ready last Saturday, but put it off until today for a proper celebration. Seriously, what can be better? It's coffee! *And ice cream!
Chilled Chocolate Charm
Ingredients:
- 2 cups of Skeleton Brew's "Chilled Bones" blend coffee, brewed and chilled
- 1 1/2 cups of heavy cream
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup of sweet chocolate shavings
- Optional: Caramel drizzle and crushed hazelnuts for topping
Instructions:
Step 1: Chilled Infusion
Begin by brewing Skeleton Brew's "Chilled Bones" blend coffee. Once brewed, allow it to chill in the refrigerator, capturing its chocolatey and floral essence.
Step 2: Silken Whisk
In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream and granulated sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring continuously until the sugar dissolves completely. Remove from heat and let it cool.
Step 3: Chocolatey Embrace
Slowly blend the chilled "Chilled Bones" coffee into the creamy mixture, ensuring a harmonious blend of flavors.
Step 4: Vanilla Veil
Stir in the vanilla extract, adding a layer of aromatic sweetness to the blend.
Step 5: Sweetened Charms
Fold in the sweet chocolate shavings, ensuring they're evenly dispersed throughout the mixture.
Step 6: Crystal Chill
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Step 7: Chilled Rest
Transfer the ice cream to a lidded container and let it freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
Step 8: Garnished Glimmer
Serve the Chilled Chocolate Charm in bowls or cones, and if desired, top with caramel drizzle and crushed hazelnuts for an added crunch and flavor.
Step 9: Savor the Serenity
Indulge in the creamy allure of the Chilled Chocolate Charm, where the unique flavors of Skeleton Brew's coffee meld with the sweetness of chocolate. A serene delight that enchants the palate.

I love coffee coffee... And ice creame as well.
Great combination. Thanks for the recipe
Thanks! Definitely two of my favourites, too. It's like a nice package all wrapped up at once.
I did not know about this celebration, 'but I agree that it is a delicious combination.
I particularly like both and I had the opportunity to try the Coffee Ice Cream in Venezuela and it is delicious. Thanks for sharing. Health and greetings.
Here in the US there is a "day" for everything. If you can think it, chances are it exists! It has really gotten silly, but I'm all for celebrating coffee and ice cream for any reason. 😁
I am one of those who think that regardless of the day that is dedicated to something the things I like I celebrate the day I like.
This looks amazing, and I didn't know that there was such a day to celebrate National Coffee Ice Cream Day, so I'll mark this in my calendar:)
Enjoy:)
A parody from a fictional book
Hee! I've actually pulled together a list of all "national coffee days" in the US. There's a day for everything: dogs, cats, balloons, and whatever. But.. coffee!
My Lord!
Wow! So you are really big coffee drinkers, it seems 🙌
What?! Ha ha ha ha. I had no idea this day existed. Now I must celebrate it every year from now on.
Loved your video recipe. Skeletally delicious.
That is an awesome skeleton dance! Love it!
Also national book day but I didnt read anything either.

Hah! Yeah, I'm the same. So many books, so few ever read. I usually wait for the movie, then don't see that either.
I was gonna write "holy fuck" but I've decided to not swear so much and clean my act up.
Not chocolate and coffee though. Going hard with the chocolate and coffee. Bookmarked
Bahahaha! That's one of my goto lines, too.
I will drop the f-bomb when I'm conducting interviews for potential applicants, just to see how they react. If they get horrified, I'm left unsure if I can work with them.
Me for more of "my people"
One has to know as soon as possible, you know! You gotta be as unshockable as you can to be free
It's true! And particularly when hiring someone, I think it's more important to know if they'll be a cultural fit than anything else. Skills can be learned. Being an asshole cannot be unlearned.
😆
I've been known to be an asshole and have been an asshole this week. Sorry so late! I struggle to answer comments on the phone and have been mobile myself so...
Yep. You can weed out the twitchy humans with a few good pokes! Don't even. You know what kind of pokes I mean! :D
