Bens Chocolate Ice Cream Recipe
Yield: 1 ServingsRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
4 ounce: Unsweetened chocolate,
1 cup: Milk,
2 large: Eggs,
1 cup: Sugar,
1 cup: Heavy or whipping cream,
1 tsp: Vanilla,
1 pinch: Salt,
Directions:
Bens Chocolate Ice Cream is about as rich as they come. The pinch of
salt helps to bring out the chocolate flavor. Melt the unsweetened
chocolate in the top of a double boiler over hot, not boiling water.
Gradually whisk in the milk and heat, stirring constantly, until
smooth. Remove from the heat and let cool. Whisk the eggs in a mixing
bowl until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes. Whisk in the sugar, a
little at a time, then continue whisking until completely blended,
about 1 minute more. Add the cream, vanilla and salt and whisk to
blend. Pour the chocolate mixture into the cream mixture and blend.
Cover and refrigerate until cold, about 1-3 hours, depending on your
refrigerator. Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze
following the manufacturers instructions. Makes 1 generous quart.
VARIATION: Chocolate Almond- Add 1 cup roasted whole almonds (salted
or unsalted) after the ice cream stiffens, about 2 minutes before it
is done, then continue to freeze until the ice cream is ready.
