Ice Cream Balls
Method
Preparation
Prepare Ice Cream Balls
Scoop out 1/2 cup of vanilla ice cream and form into a ball. Create a small indentation in the center and place a cherry (with a bit of almond) inside. Seal the ice cream around the cherry and freeze for 30 minutes. Repeat with chocolate ice cream.
Make Chocolate Shell
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
Coat Ice Cream Balls
Remove the ice cream balls from the freezer. Dip each ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and return to the freezer for at least 1 hour until the chocolate shell hardens.
Prepare Whipped Cream
In a mixing bowl, combine heavy cream and powdered sugar. Whip until soft peaks form.
Serve
Once the chocolate shell has hardened, cut each ice cream ball into quarters. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle with chocolate shavings.
