- Add the Flavor: Once the base mixture is cooled, add in the chocolate chips and vanilla extract. Stir until the chocolate chips are fully melted and well combined.
- Freeze: Pour the mixture into a shallow, freezer-safe dish and place it in the freezer for about 2 hours, or until it starts to set.
- Scrape and Serve: Using a fork, scrape the partially frozen mixture to create a slushy texture. Return it to the freezer for another hour. Repeat this process every hour until the mixture is completely frozen and has a fluffy texture.
Once your homemade chocolate Italian ice is ready, serve it in bowls or cups and enjoy it on a hot summer day. You can also top it with some whipped cream or sprinkles for an extra touch of sweetness.
