Number Of Ingredients 8

One 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup unsweetened natural cocoa powder
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Pinch fine salt

Categories     dessert

Time 8h18m

Yield 1 1/2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 ounces unsweetened cocoa powder, approximately 1/2 cup
3 cups half-and-half
1 cup heavy cream
8 large egg yolks
9 ounces sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Place the cocoa powder along with 1 cup of the half-and-half into a medium saucepan over medium heat and whisk to combine. Add the remaining half-and-half and the heavy cream. Bring the mixture just to a simmer, stirring occasionally, and remove from the heat.
  • In a medium mixing bowl whisk the egg yolks until they lighten in color. Gradually add the sugar and whisk to combine. Temper the cream mixture into the eggs and sugar by gradually adding small amounts, until about 1/3 of the cream mixture has been added. Pour in the remainder and return the entire mixture to the saucepan and place over low heat. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon and reaches 170 to 175 degrees F. Pour the mixture into a container and allow to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Stir in the vanilla extract. Place the mixture into the refrigerator and once it is cool enough not to form condensation on the lid, cover and store for 4 to 8 hours or until the temperature reaches 40 degrees F or below.
  • Pour into an ice cream maker and process according to the manufacturer's directions. This should take approximately 25 to 35 minutes. Serve as is for soft serve or freeze for another 3 to 4 hours to allow the ice cream to harden.

CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM

Forget the faff of ice cream makers and custard - this fudgy chocolate ice cream not only tastes divine, it's easy to make at home too

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Dessert

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

200g dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa solids), chopped into small pieces
500ml double cream
340g can sweetened condensed milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 tbsp organic cocoa powder, sifted
50g milk chocolate chips
sea salt flakes, to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of just-simmering water, ensuring the bowl doesn't touch the water, or do this in the microwave in 20-second bursts until smooth and glossy. Leave to cool slightly. Pour the cream, condensed milk and vanilla into a second bowl and beat for 3 mins using an electric whisk until slightly thickened and the beaters leave a trail in the mixture when lifted across the bowl. Be careful not to overwhip, as you don't want the mixture to be too stiff - as soon as the beaters leave a trail, it's ready.
  • Gently fold the melted chocolate and cocoa powder into the cream mixture until thoroughly combined, ensuring the spatula is reaching the bottom of the bowl so all the chocolate gets mixed in. Fold in most of the chocolate chips, reserving a small handful. Scrape the mixture into a 1-litre freezerproof container, then scatter over the reserved chocolate chips. Cover and freeze for at least 6 hrs until firm but scoopable. Will keep frozen for up to a month. To serve, scoop the ice cream into chilled bowls or ice cream cones and sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt, if you like.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly impact the flavor of your ice cream. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Temper the chocolate: Tempering the chocolate helps to stabilize it and prevent it from seizing when it's added to the ice cream base. To temper chocolate, melt it gently over a double boiler or in the microwave until it reaches a temperature of 115°F (46°C). Then, raise the temperature to 120°F (49°C) and stir constantly until the chocolate is smooth and shiny.
  • Use a good ice cream maker: A good ice cream maker will help you churn the ice cream quickly and evenly. Look for an ice cream maker that has a powerful motor and a large capacity.
  • Chill the ice cream base thoroughly: Before churning the ice cream, chill the base thoroughly in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight. This will help the ice cream freeze more quickly and smoothly.
  • Churn the ice cream until it reaches the desired consistency: The churning time will vary depending on the type of ice cream maker you're using. Generally, you should churn the ice cream for 20-30 minutes, or until it reaches a thick and creamy consistency.
  • Store the ice cream properly: Once the ice cream is churned, transfer it to a freezer-safe container and freeze it for at least 4 hours before serving. The ice cream can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

With these tips in mind, you can make delicious chocolate ice cream at home that will rival any store-bought brand. So next time you're craving a sweet treat, skip the store and make your own chocolate ice cream instead. You'll be glad you did!
