Equipment

  • 1 Hand Mixer
  • 1 Large Bowl
  • 6 1/2 Cup Storage Containers I use glass Anchor Hocking containers

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Pint 35% Heavy Cream
  • 1/4 Can Condensed Milk NOT evaporated milk
  • 1/2 Cup Maraschino Cherries Diced
  • 2-3 Tbsp Liquid from Maraschino Cherries
  • 1/2 Cup Chocolate Chips Milk or Dark is preferred

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, add the entire pint of heavy cream. Using a handheld mixer, mix until whipped and forming stiff peaks.
  • Fold in the condensed milk gently so as to not lose the "fluff" of the whipped cream.
  • Fold in the diced cherries, the cherry juice, and the chocolate chips.
  • Separate into storage containers in equal amounts and freeze, preferably overnight.
  • Enjoy!
