Black Magic Charcoal Ice Cream with Edible Glitter

This charcoal ice cream is not only visually stunning with its deep black hue and glittery shimmer, but it's a delightfully creamy treat.

Ingredients

• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup whole milk
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons activated charcoal powder
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons edible glitter

Instructions

1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, and granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is steaming, but not boiling.
2. Remove the saucepan from heat and whisk in the activated charcoal powder until fully incorporated and the mixture turns black.
3. Stir in the vanilla extract and salt, ensuring even distribution.
4. Let the mixture cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until completely chilled.
5. Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes.
6. Once the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency, fold in the edible glitter with a spatula.
7. Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to firm up before serving.
