Ingredients

1 3/4 cups heavy whipping cream
15 oz dark red cherries 1 can drained
1 1/2 cups sweetened condensed milk
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

Use an electric hand mixer to whip the cream in a large mixing bowl. Start on a low speed and increase the speed as the cream thickens until it begins to form soft peaks.
Once the heavy cream forms soft peaks, add the cherries, condensed milk, and vanilla extract. Continue whipping the mixture on a high speed until the condensed milk is fully incorporated into the cream and the cherries are scattered evenly throughout the mixture.
Add the mini chocolate chips and gently fold them into the ice cream mixture.
Pour the ice cream mixture into a large plastic container or a 9x5 inch loaf pan. Cover with plastic wrap. Freeze for 24 hours.
Allow to thaw slightly before dishing up with an ice cream scoop.

Notes

I like to add the cherries with the condensed milk instead of with the chocolate chips so that they are broken up a little bit before freezing. This helps to release the cherry juice throughout the ice cream mixture.
