(Helado de Chocolate)
Category: Ice Creams
Makes about 1 quart
A good friend and occasional travel partner, Camille Tarantino, gets credit for developing this intense chocolate ice cream so reminiscent of the rich goodness of the Mexican original that inspired it.
2 large eggs
1 1/4 cups unsweetened baking cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups whole milk, warmed to steaming
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/4 cups heavy or whipping cream
2 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (Mexican canela or Ceylon variety preferred)
1. Put the eggs and cocoa in a blender or food processor and pulse to mix. Gradually add the warmed milk through the lid opening. Pour into a medium saucepan. Whisk in the sugar, and cook over medium heat, stirring, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture thickens and coats the back of a wooden spoon, about 4 to 6 minutes. (Do not boil or it will curdle).
2. Cool to lukewarm; then stir in the cream, vanilla, almond extract, and cinnamon. Transfer to a clean container. Cover and refrigerate about 6 hours or overnight. Stir the mixture and transfer to an ice cream machine. Freeze according to manufacturer's directions.
