The heat is coming and today I made three-flavor ice cream bonbons — little balls (unfortunately each one different because the warmth of my hands and wearing gloves made shaping these sweets a bit of a mess…) — sweet frozen bites to keep in the freezer, like the old-style bomboniera ice creams from some time ago!
The ice cream bonbons are very easy and you only need to remove them from the freezer a few minutes before bringing them to the table to enjoy them.
The mixture is simple and, I assure you, very delicious — so follow me and we’ll quickly prepare the three-flavor ice cream bonbons!

- Mixing bowl
- Spatula
- Ice cream scoop
Preparation for THREE-FLAVOR ICE CREAM BONBONS
Mix the mascarpone in a bowl, softening it slightly with a spatula.
Add the powdered sugar, the sifted unsweetened cocoa and the espresso, obtaining a thick, very tasty cream.
Be patient and, if you have a small-sized ice cream scoop (mine is large), use it, placing the small balls you make immediately into the freezer!
After a few minutes and while protecting your hands with disposable food-safe gloves, try to round them: I struggled a bit, but these little frozen treats are so good that the effort is absolutely worth the time.
Leave in the freezer for at least 2-3 hours. Melt the dark chocolate in a bain-marie or in the microwave and quickly dip the ice cream bonbons in the warm (not boiling) chocolate sauce.
Return the bonbons to the freezer and only at the moment of serving, sprinkle them with a little unsweetened cocoa powder.
Enjoy your three-flavor ice cream bonbons!
