Spoon up this delicious, no-churn coffee ice cream ahead of International Coffee Day, Oct. 1.

"The moment I realized I could make smooth, silky homemade coffee ice cream with just five ingredients and no ice cream maker, I was sold," Cara Lanz, of MidwesternHomeLife.com, tells Fox News.

"It’s better than anything in the stores — and I get to add as many chocolate chips as I want! And the jolt of caffeine makes it a perfect afternoon pick-me-up," she said.

Lanz’s top tip for making this coffee ice cream is to chill the cream, the bowl, and the beaters before whipping the cream. "Whipping cold cream ensures maximum volume and a creamy texture," she says. Get the full recipe below.
