Preparation Steps
  1. Begin by brewing a strong cup of coffee and allow it to cool to room temperature for about 15–20 minutes.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream on medium-high speed for 3–5 minutes until stiff peaks form.
  3. In another bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, cooled brewed coffee, vanilla extract, and salt; stir gently until smooth.
  4. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the coffee mixture, starting with a third of the whipped cream to lighten it.
  5. Mix in the dark chocolate chunks using a gentle folding motion.
  6. Transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container, smoothing the top, and freeze for at least 6 hours.
  7. When ready to serve, scoop the ice cream into bowls or cones.
