Homemade Espresso Ice Cream Recipe

This rich and creamy homemade espresso ice cream is a coffee lover's dream. It's the perfect balance of sweet and bitter, made with heavy cream, whole milk, and instant espresso powder. The addition of vanilla extract and a pinch of salt enhances the flavor. Best of all, it's simple to make and doesn't require any special equipment. (other than an ice cream maker).
