Ingredients
- ¾ cup sugar
- ¾ cup orange juice
- 12 ounces fresh or frozen cranberries
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup milk
- ¼ cup sugar
- ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅔ cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon refined (unflavored coconut oil)
Steps
-
Combine ¾ cup sugar and the orange juice in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the cranberries and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until the cranberries begin to burst. Smash the remaining cranberries with a potato masher or a wooden spoon.
-
Place a mesh strainer over a large bowl and press the hot cooked sauce through it. Use the back of a wooden spoon or a large spatula to do this. Scrape the underside of the strainer as well. Discard the pulp.
-
Whisk the cream and milk into the strained sauce, along with the remaining ¼ cup of sugar and the salt. Pour this mixture into the ice cream maker and process according to the manufacturer's instructions.
-
While the ice cream is churning, add the chocolate chips and coconut oil to a small glass bowl. Microwave for 90-120 seconds until softened. Stir to melt. Set aside to cool slightly.
-
Scoop the finished ice cream into an airtight container, drizzling chocolate over each scoop as it is added to the container. Swirl lightly with a knife or the end of a spoon and drizzle any remaining chocolate over the top of the ice cream. Cover with lid and place in the freezer until ready to serve.
