Chocolate Ganache Ice Cream
- Place the chopped chocolate in a large heatproof bowl. Set aside.
- Put ¾ cup of the heavy cream in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Pour over the chopped chocolate and let it sit for about a minute; gently stir with a rubber spatula until smooth.
- In a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan, bring the milk and the remaining ¾ cup of heavy cream ot a boil.
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks and sugar together until they are slightly thickened. Still whisking, drizzle in about ⅓ of the hot milk mixture to temper the eggs. Slowly pour in the remaining liquid, whisking the whole time. Pour the custard back into the pan and cook, stirring consistently, over medium heat until the custard thickens slightly. Remove the pan from the heat and gently stir the ganache into the custard.
- Refrigerate the custard overnight.
- Scrape the chilled custard into the bowl of your ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer’s instructions. Put the ice cream in a freezer-safe container and freezer for at least 2 hours, or until it is firm enough to scool.

I like chocolate, but it’s not ever my first choice. But I can see how this could take it to another level. I’m already thinking about all kinds of other add-ins!!

I can definitely take or leave chocolate ice cream but this looks so good. I am so ready for ice cream “season”!

Chocolate isn’t at the top of my list either, but I made this recipe for TWD a few years ago and absolutely loved it! I think I might have added marshmallows and graham crackers to turn it into s’mores, but it would have been great even plain.
