Nutella is God's way of letting you know there is a heaven! It's a chocolate hazelnut spread (for breads, or just about anything else) that is truly divine. Go, run, to the store and buy some if you haven't tried it.
When I saw the recipe on Sugarlaws, I knew I absolutely had to make it. I'm a Nutella-holic.
Nutella Ice Cream with Roasted Almonds
(inspired from Sugarlaws' Nutella Ice Cream)
1/3 cup Nutella
1/2 cup Cream (I used regular cream, but use heavy cream if you have it)
1/3 cup Sugar
1 cup Milk
1 tbsp Vodka (alcohol keeps ice cream soft. You could leave it out if you want)
1/2 cup Toasted and Slivered Almonds
Mix together all the ingredients except for the almonds. Beat well. Pour into a plastic container (use a shallow container if making by hand). Add the almonds and mix to combine. Close and put it in the freezer. If you have an ice cream machine, follow the instructions.
If not, remove the container every 1 1/2 - 2 hours and churn the ice cream completely. Make sure you get all the frozen parts on the sides of the container. Initially a hand blender would work very well. Repeat the churning about 3-4 times, until ice cream is completely set.
Enjoy. This is truly one of the best ice creams I've ever had.

Arundhati, ice cream looks delicious
The ice cream looks delicious. However, nutella would be an ingredient that would be difficult to find here in India. Can there be any substitute(Iknow thats the main ingredient:)
Your double chocolate muffins look so good I just had to bookmark it.
Now that's just naughty Arundathi!
Naughty naughty!
My go to dessert at the end of the day is usually strawberries dipped in nutella.
YUM YUM Arundati...YAY for such a delish looking ice-cream. It's everything to fall in love with...WOW & eggless too, even better!!

I like ice-creams like this, without the eggy custards. And with chocolate and hazelnuts its sure to be fantastic.

Heaven. Pure heaven. Love it!
Great recipe. I guess I thought I couldn't make ice cream because I don't have an ice cream maker. I should give this a try!
I love Nutella...can eat the whole jar in a day. I always though that making ice creams at home is a difficult task but your method looks easy to me.
I've made something similar to this and it's delicious but I like how you've upped the nut factor in this with the almonds!
Ooh! this is my kind of an ice cream. I'm a Nutella addict, so I don't get it any more. But I think I have to break my resolution for this ice cream. Very bad Arundathi, very bad!
To answer your question - no. Especially if one is a chocolate lover.
You had me at Nutella! :D I cannot get enough of it.
You are making my mouth water with this delicious ice cream!
