Notes

Substitutes

You can substitute reduced-fat milk for whole milk, which will slightly alter the taste.

Enhancing Chocolate Milk

Not all chocolate milk is created the same; some boast a rich, robust chocolate flavor, while others focus more on sweetness, with varying amounts of sugar.

Sweetness

When preparing an ice cream mixture, it's essential to taste it before placing it in the ice cream freezer. After combining the ingredients, check the mixture for sweetness and chocolate intensity. If the flavor isn't quite right, you can easily enhance it by simply adding 1-2 tablespoons of granulated sugar, stirring until it dissolves, and then tasting again. If additional sweetness is needed, continue to add sugar one tablespoon at a time until you achieve your desired level.

Chocolate Flavor

Similarly, if the chocolate flavor falls flat, incorporate chocolate ice cream syrup, mixing well and tasting until the mixture reaches that perfect balance of sweetness and chocolate richness.
