Instructions

In a saucepan, bring the full-fat milk to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the milk has reduced by half, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching.
Add the rolled oats to the simmering milk and stir continuously until they dissolve and the mixture thickens slightly. This creates a creamy base for the ice cream.
Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the grated dark chocolate, vanilla extract, heavy cream, and granulated sugar. Whisk until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
Gently fold in the grated almonds. This adds a pleasant textural element to the ice cream.
Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container, cover tightly, and freeze for at least four hours, or until solid. This allows the ice cream to fully set.
Once frozen, scoop the ice cream into bowls and serve. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Good To Know

For an extra crunch, toast the oats and chopped almonds in a dry skillet until golden before adding them to the ice cream mixture.
If you prefer a smoother ice cream, blend the oats into a fine flour before adding them.
Swirl in a ribbon of melted dark chocolate during the final few minutes of churning for a marbled effect.
For a dairy-free version, substitute full cream and cream with coconut cream and use a plant-based dark chocolate.
You can omit the sugar if desired.

Expert Tips

For a richer flavor, use roasted almonds instead of raw almonds.
Allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping for easier serving.
Garnish with extra chopped almonds and a drizzle of chocolate sauce before serving.
