Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 oz Unsweetened chocolate
1/3 c Unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 c Milk
2 lg Eggs
1 c Sugar
1 c Heavy or whipping cream
1 t Vanilla

The combination of cocoa powder and unsweetened chocolate creates an
ice cream with a more complex testure.Jerry refers to this as
"mouthfeel". Melt the unsweetened chocolate in the top of a double
boiler over hot, not boiling water. Gradually whisk in the cocoa and
heat, stirring constantly, until smooth. ( the chocolate may "seize"
or clump together. Don't worry, the milk will dissovle it). Whisk in
the milk, a little at a time, and heat until completely blended.
remove from the heat and let cool. Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl
until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes. Whisk in the sugar, a little at
a time, then continue whisking until completely blended, about 1
minute more. Pour in the cream and vanilla and whisk to blend. Pour
the chocolate mixture into the cream mixture and blend. Cover and
refrigerate until cold, about 1-3 hours, depending on your
refrigerator. Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze
according to manufacturer's instructions.
VARIATION: Chocolate Chocolate chip: Add 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate
chips after the ice cream stiffens, about 2 minutes before it is
done, then continue freezing until the ice cream is ready. The rick
fully textured ice cream is a chocoholic's delight. Some of Ben and
Jerry's friends take it a step further and serve it with hot fudge
sauce!
