What other ingredients can you add to homemade coffee ice cream?<\/h3>Get creative with your toppings and mix-ins! We recommend ingredients that complement the coffee\u2019s rich flavor, like chocolate chips, toasted nuts, chocolate-covered espresso beans or cookie chunks. Ready to scoop? Make sure you have one of our best ice cream scoops<\/a> lined up.\r\n
Can you put coffee grounds in ice cream?<\/h3>While this recipe calls for instant coffee granules in the ice cream base, you could also use coffee grounds as a topping. In addition to adding flavor, the grounds impart a slightly crunchy texture similar to sprinkles. Use a light hand when adding coffee grounds to your cone, though. Too many and the end result will be unpleasantly gritty. Leftover instant coffee? Use it up in one of these delicious recipes<\/a>. Be sure to check out our guide to different types of coffee<\/a>, too. \r\n
How do you store homemade coffee ice cream?<\/h3>Store homemade coffee ice cream in the freezer in an airtight container for up to two months. For best results, press a piece of waxed paper or plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the ice cream to prevent ice crystals from forming. \r\n
