This ICE CREAM is so good. The only problem I had with it that it was so think I had a hard time getting it to freeze and it would be something you might make and let freeze all day. Thank you for sharing.

Both in quality and texture, this is one of the best ice creams I've ever made. I had none of the issues or criticisms others experienced like graininess, flecks of chocolate, consistency, freezing time, etc. In my opinion this is a flawless recipe, and my suggestion is to use the finest chocolate your budget can afford. I used 3 ozs. of Scharffenberger chocolate (by accident!) and it was perfect, tho' die hard chocoholics might even appreciate another ounce. This had a smooth, velvety mouth feel, totally creamy, chocolatey and rich. This is every bit as good as the frozen custard Wisconsin is so famous for. The directions are well written and easy to follow. No need to change or add a thing--unless you have some unexplainable burning desire to do so!

Very TASTY Recipe! The only change to the ingredients was that I used half & half instead of the milk. Also after the chocolate was melted I put the pan in ice water for 2 minutes then wisked in the cream & vanilla, then refrigerated the mixture for several hours before freezing. This version is how my other ice cream recipes are made and they have all turned out great!

I made this as chocolate flan, and was it ever luscious! I used unsweetened chocolate, so it ended up being a bittersweet custard that contrasted nicely with the caramel. It was a little soft-textured, though, so next time I think I'll use one whole egg and two yolks so that the flans will hold their shape better once they're unmolded. Perfect chocolate flavor.

We have made this ice cream 3 or 4 times. It is wonderful!! I always pour it through a sieve to make sure that I get lumps out. I have also made it with any combination of half and half and cream. Yummy. Also, I have stirred in peanut butter to make chocolate peanut butter and it is wonderful! My family gives it 2 thumbs up! Great recipe and very easy!

superb recipe. I did some changing around by adding more chocolate and used 2 hot chocolate packets instead of cocoa powder. I also added a bit more vanilla and it tasted great. (I dont suggest messing with the vanilla amount.. cept my wife wants vanilla in everything. )

This was a fantastic ice cream. I did make some changes to accomadate nearly sugarless diet. I used 3/8 c agave nectar and 3/8c splenda. I accidentally added only 2 egg yolks and instead of semisweet chocolate, used giradelli unsweetened dark chocolate. I also added 2 1/2 c heavy. It was GREAT!!! Sure beats that no sugar added stuff in the market!!!

Excellent! Instead of the 2 oz unsweetened chocolate, both times I have made this I have used a 3.5 oz good quality dark chocolate bar. (Lindt 85% cocoa) Probably the best chocolate ice cream I've ever had!

This was easy to do and very rich and delicious. The only problem I had was that it didn't freeze very well. The next day the leftovers tasted flat. But we will definitely make this again!
