ingredients
- 350 g chocolate, chopped
- 250 ml milk
- 250 ml double cream
- 1⁄2 vanilla pod, split
- 4 egg yolks
- 25 g caster sugar (golden)
directions
- Melt 250 g of the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of gently simmering water.
- Heat the milk, double cream and vanilla pod together and bring to the boil.
- Whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until they start to go pale.
- Slowly whisk the boiling milk into the egg yolks, then return the mixture to the pan and cook over a low heat, stirring all the time, until the mixture coats the back of a spoon.
- Strain the custard into the melted chocolate and blend well, then leave to cool. Place in a mould or container and freeze for 2-3 hours. When thick and half frozen take out, place in a blender and process to a smooth, cold mixture.
- Chop the remaining chocolate very finely and stir inches Reurn to the container and the freezer for a further 1-2 hours until frozen.
- You can serve the ice cream layered, at the last minute, between home-made chocolate biscuits or waffles. Another idea is to cut out circles of chocolate Melt mascao plain or maya gold chocolate gently (perhaps with a little orange liqueur) and then pour it on to a cool work surface (or a piece of marble) When the chocolate has cooled a little, mark with a round pastry cutter, then leave to set completely. Remove the circles carefully and serve with the ice cream.
