Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups heavy cream

  • ¾ cup sugar
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 4 oz semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 large egg yolks

Instructions 

  1. In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, and cocoa powder. Heat over medium heat until the mixture is hot but not boiling.

  4. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped chocolate and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Pour the mixture into a bowl and let it cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  6. Churn the mixture in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to a container and freeze until firm.
