 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    2       oz           Unsweetened chocolate
      1/3   c            Unsweetened cocoa pwdr
    1 1/2   c            Milk
    2                    Large eggs
    1       c            Sugar
    1       c            Whipping cream
    1       t            Vanilla extract
 
   1.  Melt the unsweetened chocolate on 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 dissolve it.)  Whisk in the
   milk, a little at a time, and heat until completely
   blended. Remove from the heat and let cool.
   2.  Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until light and
   fluffy, 1 to 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. 3.  Pour the chocolate
   mixture into the cream mixture and blend. Cover and
   refrigerate until cold, about 1 to 2 hours, depending
   on your refrigerator.
   4.  Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and
   freeze following the manufacturer’s instructions.
   Makes 1 quart.
   VARIATIONS:
   CHOCOLATE CHOCOLATE CHIP:  Add 3/4 c. semisweet
   chocolate chips after the ice cream stiffens (about 2
   minutes before it is done), then continue freezing
   until the ice cream is ready. CHOCOLATE MINT:  Whisk 1
   teaspoon peppermint extract into the mixture just
   before transferring it to the ice cream maker.
   CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER:  Just before transferring the
   mixture to the ice cream maker, pour about 1 cup of it
   into a separate bowl.  Add 1/2 cup smooth peanut
   butter and whisk until completely blended. Return to
   the remaining mixture and blend. CHOCOLATE BANANA:
   Mash 2 overripe bananas and the juice of one lemon
   together in a bowl, then whisk until smooth.  After
   the ice cream stiffens (about 2 minutes before it is
   done), add the banana mixture, then continue freezing
   until the ice cream is ready. CHOCOLATE FUDGE PECAN:
   After the ice cream stiffens (about 2 minutes before
   it is done), add 3/4 cup pecan halves, then continue
   freezing until the ice cream is ready.  After it is
   ready, remove the dasher and fold in 1 cup fudge sauce
   (cold) into the ice cream with a spatula.
   CHOCOLATE REESE'S CUP:  Chop 1 cup Reese’s Peanut
   Butter cups, place into bowl and refrigerate.  After
   ice cream stiffens, add the candy, then continue
   freezing until the ice cream is done. Source:  Ben &
