Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 oz Unsweetened chocolate
1/3 c Unsweetened cocoa pwdr
1 1/2 c Milk
2 Large eggs
1 c Sugar
1 c Whipping cream
1 t Vanilla extract
1. Melt the unsweetened chocolate on top of a double
boiler over hot, not boiling, water. Gradually whisk
in the cocoa and heat, stirring constantly, until
smooth. (The chocolate may "seize" or clump together.
Don't worry, the milk will dissolve it.) Whisk in the
milk, a little at a time, and heat until completely
blended. Remove from the heat and let cool.
2. Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until light and
fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the sugar, a little
at a time, then continue whisking until completely
blended, about 1 minute more. Pour in the cream and
vanilla and whisk to blend. 3. Pour the chocolate
mixture into the cream mixture and blend. Cover and
refrigerate until cold, about 1 to 2 hours, depending
on your refrigerator.
4. Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and
freeze following the manufacturer's instructions.
Makes 1 quart.
VARIATIONS:
CHOCOLATE CHOCOLATE CHIP: Add 3/4 c. semisweet
chocolate chips after the ice cream stiffens (about 2
minutes before it is done), then continue freezing
until the ice cream is ready. CHOCOLATE MINT: Whisk 1
teaspoon peppermint extract into the mixture just
before transferring it to the ice cream maker.
CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER: Just before transferring the
mixture to the ice cream maker, pour about 1 cup of it
into a separate bowl. Add 1/2 cup smooth peanut
butter and whisk until completely blended. Return to
the remaining mixture and blend. CHOCOLATE BANANA:
Mash 2 overripe bananas and the juice of one lemon

it is done), add 3/4 cup pecan halves, then continue

ready, remove the dasher and fold in 1 cup fudge sauce
(cold) into the ice cream with a spatula.
