Place a large mixing bowl and the whisk attachment of your electric mixer into the freezer for at least 15 minutes to chill thoroughly. This helps the cream whip more efficiently.

Remove the chilled bowl and whisk from the freezer. Pour the very cold heavy cream into the bowl. Whip on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3 to 5 minutes. Be careful not to over-whip, as it can turn grainy.

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, unsweetened cocoa powder, and pure vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and the cocoa is fully incorporated, with no lumps.

Gently fold about one-third of the whipped cream into the chocolate-condensed milk mixture to lighten it. Then, carefully fold in the remaining whipped cream until no streaks of white remain. Use a spatula and a gentle hand to avoid deflating the airy cream.

Fold in the toasted and roughly chopped hazelnuts and the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

Pour the ice cream mixture into a freezer-safe container (a 9x5 inch loaf pan or a 2-quart container works well). Smooth the top with a spatula.

Cover the container tightly with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the ice cream to prevent ice crystals from forming. Freeze for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, until the ice cream is firm.

To serve, remove the ice cream from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly, making it easier to scoop. Scoop into bowls and enjoy!
