Ingredients
- ¾ cup milk
- 6 large egg yolks
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 3 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 teaspoons dark cocoa powder
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, melted & cooled slightly
- 2 ¼ cups heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons chocolate extract
- 2 teaspoons almond extract
- 2 cups pitted cherries, roughly chopped
- 2 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
Instructions
- Freeze the bowl of the KitchenAid® Ice Cream Maker Attachment.
- Place the milk in a small saucepan and heat over medium-low until barely simmering.
- In a small bowl, whisk the yolks, sugar, cocoa powders, and salt together.
- When the milk is very hot, pour it into the yolk mixture in a very slow stream, while whisking.
- Transfer the mixture back to the saucepan and continue to cook over medium-low heat while whisking, until thickened slightly (about 3 to 5 minutes).
- Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a heat safe bowl. Whisk in the melted chocolate, cream, and extracts. Chill overnight.
- Fit the frozen Ice Cream Maker Attachment onto the KitchenAid® Stand Mixer.
- Pour the chilled ice cream base into the bowl and churn on medium-low speed until thick (about 20 minutes).
- Transfer about ⅓ of the ice cream to a loaf pan.
- Top with about ⅓ of the cherries. Sprinkle with about ⅓ of the chopped chocolate. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Freeze overnight and serve.
