Summer is here—time for sun protection, cold drinks, and easy frozen treats. This no-churn Nutella ice cream is a perfect way to cool off: rich, creamy, and packed with chocolate-hazelnut flavor.

No-Churn Ferrero Rocher Nutella Ice Cream

Can you have too much Nutella? Probably not. This recipe goes all in: a no-churn Nutella base folded with whipped cream, studded with chopped Ferrero Rocher candies and toasted hazelnuts, and finished with ribbons of Nutella ganache. It’s an over-the-top dessert that’s surprisingly simple to make.

Ferrero Rocher offers a perfect combination of chocolate, wafer and hazelnut that pairs beautifully with a Nutella-forward ice cream. If you love crunchy chocolate hazelnut bites and a creamy frozen base, this will quickly become a favorite.

Nutella Ice Cream Base

This is a true no-churn recipe—no ice cream maker required. You’ll need a hand mixer or stand mixer (or the patience to whisk by hand) to whip the cream to stiff peaks. Start by combining Nutella with sweetened condensed milk until smooth. Whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks and fold it gently into the Nutella mixture in batches. For plain Nutella ice cream, freeze the mixture and enjoy.

To elevate it, stir in chopped Ferrero Rocher candies and toasted hazelnuts for texture and extra flavor. Layering with Nutella ganache adds glossy swirls that cut through the creamy base.

Nutella Ganache Swirl

The Nutella ganache is simple: heat heavy cream until it barely simmers, pour it over Nutella, and stir until smooth. To incorporate it into the ice cream, spread a portion of the ice cream mix, drizzle ganache over it, and swirl with a knife. Repeat in layers to create attractive ribbons of ganache throughout. Reserve some ganache for drizzling over scoops when serving.

Chocolate Hazelnut Waffle Cones

If you want the full Ferrero Rocher treatment, make chocolate-hazelnut waffle cones. You need melted chocolate, chopped toasted hazelnuts, Nutella, and waffle cones. Spoon melted chocolate into each cone and coat the inside, then dip the rim in chopped hazelnuts. Add a spoonful of Nutella at the bottom for a nice surprise in each cone, then chill the cones to set.

The combination of creamy Nutella ice cream, crunchy Ferrero Rocher pieces, toasted hazelnuts, and a chocolate-lined cone makes for an irresistible scoop. These cones can be stored in the freezer for convenience; fill them with the chilled ice cream just before serving.

Make this while it’s warm outside—ice cream season is prime time. Enjoy the contrast of creamy, crunchy, and chocolatey elements in every bite.

Instructions

Nutella Ganache

Place Nutella in a medium bowl.

Combine sweetened condensed milk and Nutella in a bowl until smooth.
Whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks (about 3–4 minutes).
Fold whipped cream into the Nutella mixture in thirds until combined.
Fold in chopped Ferrero Rocher candies and toasted hazelnuts.
Spread one-third of the mixture into a parchment-lined 9-inch springform or 9×5-inch loaf pan. Drizzle some Nutella ganache and swirl. Add half of the remaining ice cream, drizzle and swirl ganache, then top with the rest of the mixture and finish with more ganache. Sprinkle with extra chopped Ferrero Rochers and hazelnuts if desired.
Cover and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight before scooping.

Stand cones upright and freeze for 10–15 minutes to set.
Scoop chilled ice cream into cones and serve immediately.

Notes

Store coated cones in a sealed container in the freezer until ready to use.
If preferred, fill the bottom of cones with leftover Nutella ganache instead of plain Nutella.
