Ingredients
.75 cup Brown sugar
1 cup Milk
2.5 tbsp Cocoa powder
3 Egg yolk-lightly beaten
80 gram Dark chocolate -chopped
1 cup Chocolate chips
1 tsp Vanilla essence
2 cups Thickened Cream
Directions
- In a saucepan over medium heat, mix the sugar, milk and cocoa powder. Use a whisk to combine these ingredients, and bring to a simmer.
- In a small bowl, place the lightly beaten egg yolks.
- Very gradually, stir through 1/2 cup of the hot liquid to bring the yolks up to heat. Then add this yolk mixture back into the saucepan. Heat until thick, but do not boil.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir through the chopped chocolate until it is melted. Pour this into a chilled bowl and pop in the fridge for about 2 hours until cold. You can stir it occasionally during this time.
- Once the chocolate mixture is completely cooled, stir through the thickened cream, chocolate chips, and the vanilla essence. Pour this into your ice cream maker, and freeze according to the directions for your maker.
- Top with nuts or pretty much anything else you want.
- Serve and prepare to have your life changed.
