Mocha Java Ice Cream

Hi Everyone!

It’s Gina from Kleinworth & Co.

Can you believe that Mother’s Day is this weekend? This will be my first Mother’s Day without my mom. Normally I would bake some goodies & mail them to her. Instead I decided to create one of her all-time FAVORITE treats in honor of her. This Mocha Java Ice Cream is definitely something she loved very much. I grew up on it. Being able to recreate it at home has taken a lot of recipe testing. Not that the other versions were bad- I enjoyed them very much. But THIS ONE is everything & more that I remember sharing with my mom over the years.

My mom’s favorite things were cake & ice cream. She was a professional cake decorator for many years & had incredible talent in her ability to make some of the most gorgeous cakes you ever would lay eyes on. But to her it wasn’t complete without a heaping scoop or two (okay more like 3-4) of our favorite Mocha Java Ice Cream.

It has that perfect blend of chocolate & coffee – oh so yummy.

I will be making this in her memory to have over this weekend.

So creamy & then the mini chocolate chips just take it over the top.
