Introduction

Who doesn't love chocolate? And who doesn't love ice cream? Combine the two and you have a heavenly dessert that is perfect for any occasion. Making your own chocolate ice cream at home may seem daunting, but it is actually quite simple. In this article, we will guide you through the process of making chocolate ice cream from scratch.

Ingredients

Before we begin, let's take a look at the ingredients you will need for this recipe: - 2 cups heavy cream - 1 cup whole milk - 3/4 cup granulated sugar - 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder - 1/4 tsp salt - 4 egg yolks - 1 tsp vanilla extract - 4 oz semisweet chocolate, chopped

Instructions

Step 1: Heat the Cream and Milk

In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream and whole milk over medium heat until it begins to steam. Do not let it boil.

Step 2: Mix the Sugar and Cocoa Powder

In a separate bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3: Combine the Mixtures

In a large bowl, whisk the egg yolks until they are pale yellow. Slowly pour the hot cream and milk mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from scrambling. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.

Step 4: Add the Chocolate

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the chopped semisweet chocolate and vanilla extract until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.

Step 5: Chill the Mixture

Pour the mixture into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap, pressing the wrap directly onto the surface of the mixture to prevent a skin from forming. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Step 6: Churn the Ice Cream

Once the mixture is chilled, pour it into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.

Step 7: Freeze the Ice Cream

Transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 2 hours or until firm.
