- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form and then fold it into the sweetened, condensed milk until smooth.
- Fold in the sour cherry preserves to mix throughout the ice cream and pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust.
- Cover and freeze for 6 hours to set.
For the chocolate whipped cream
- Beat heavy cream until soft peaks form.
- Slowly add cocoa powder, sugar and vanilla with the mixer on low. Turn mixer back to high and whip until stiff peaks form.
