FROZEN CHOCOLATE CUSTARD

I came up with this recipe after a lot of experimentation. I tried using as many methods as I could think of using different pots and heat settings. I even tried using a double boiler. Every time the result was curdled eggs. After a lot of research, I decided to try using the microwave. I can tell you that there is no other way to make custard! I've made several batches now and each one has been thick and smooth without and eggy taste. This is exactly the way custard should be and it makes for some great ice cream.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the custard will taste. Use real cream and milk, fresh eggs, and high-quality chocolate.
  • Make sure the custard base is thick enough. The custard should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. If it's too thin, it will be icy and not creamy.
  • Chill the custard base thoroughly before freezing. This will help prevent the custard from becoming grainy.
  • Freeze the custard in a covered container. This will help prevent the custard from absorbing freezer odors.
  • Let the custard thaw in the refrigerator overnight before serving. This will allow the custard to soften and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

Frozen chocolate custard is a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make frozen chocolate custard that is sure to impress your family and friends. So, what are you waiting for? Give it a try today!
