With the summer months slowly winding down, I decided to bid the season adieu with one last quintessential warm weather treat. And while my ice cream maker has been a bit of a work horse this year, I have to admit that every other version has paled in comparison to this chocolate custard ice cream recipe. Rich and creamy, smooth as silk, it’s one of my newest favourite indulgences.

A rich and creamy recipe for homemade chocolate ice cream
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the milk, cream, half the sugar, cocoa powder and salt. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and the remaining half of the sugar until pale in colour.
Return to your milk and cocoa powder mixture. Place over medium heat and bring just to a boil. Once bubbling, very slowly pour it into your egg yolk mixture, stirring vigorously until combined.
Pour the entire mixture back into your saucepan. Cook on medium heat until it thickens and coats the back of your spoon (around 80 degrees celcius).
Once thickened, pour over chopped chocolate, whisking until melted and incorporated.
Strain through a fine mesh sieve, and cool until room temperature, giving it a stir every so often to prevent a skin from forming.
Once cooled, plate a piece of plastic wrap directly touching the surface and refrigerate overnight.
Churn according to your manufacturers directions, pour into a container, cover with plastic wrap and freeze for two hours.
Enjoy!
