Nutella Ice Cream at Home

An afternoon walk, strolling through the Italian countryside, enjoying a scoop of gelato—there’s something magical about it. The sun warms the cobblestone streets, the scent of citrus and olive trees fills the air, and the creamy sweetness of gelato melts perfectly with each bite. I want to recreate Nutella Ice Cream at home.
I may not be in Italy every day, but I can bring a little of that magic into my kitchen. My Nutella Ice Cream at home is rich, smooth, and packed with chocolate-hazelnut flavor. The best part? It’s incredibly easy to make!
Everyone who tried it gave it a 10/10, and I completely agree. Whether you enjoy it on its own, drizzle it with extra Nutella, or sandwich it between two crisp wafers, it’s pure indulgence.
With just a few simple ingredients—milk, sugar, heavy cream, vanilla, and Nutella—you can whip up this dreamy dessert in no time. A Cuisinart ice cream maker does all the work, churning everything into a silky, luscious gelato that tastes like an Italian vacation in a bowl. If you’re looking for one, this is the Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker I use from Williams Sonoma.
If you’re serious about gelato making, why not take it a step further? The last time I visited San Gimignano, I discovered a gelato shop offering classes. Check out the Dondoli Gelato Class if you want to learn from the masters! And learn how to make real Italian Gelato ( not ice cream).
