(Makes ten 1/2-cup servings)

Variations:

Mint Chip: Omit the vanilla and replace with 1 to 1-1/2 teaspoons of pure peppermint extract to taste. Chop up 4 ounces of your favorite bittersweet or semi-sweet chocolate bar into tiny, uneven pieces. Add the chopped chocolate during the last 5 minutes of mixing.

Butter Pecan: Melt 1 stick of unsalted butter in a 10-inch skillet. Add 1 cup of roughly chopped pecans and 1 teaspoon of kosher salt. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently until the pecans are lightly browned. Remove from heat and strain. The butter will now have a pecan flavor and can be saved for future use. Allow the pecans to cool completely. Add the toasted buttered pecans to the mix during the last 5 minutes of mixing.

Cookies & Cream: Add 3/4 cup of coarsely chopped cookies or your favorite candy during the last 5 minutes of mixing.

Basic Chocolate Ice Cream (Makes ten 1/2-cup servings)

1 cup whole milk

1/2 cup granulated sugar

240g or 8 ounces bittersweet or semi-sweet chocolate, broken into 1/2-inch pieces

2 cups heavy cream

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Heat the milk until it is just bubbling around the edges (this may be done on the stovetop or in a microwave). In a blender or food processor, combine the sugar and chocolate until the chocolate is finely chopped. Add the hot milk and blend until mixture is smooth. Transfer mixture to a medium bowl and let the chocolate mixture cool completely. Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla to taste. Turn the machine on and pour the mixture into the mixing bowl. Let the mix thicken for about 50 – 60 minutes.
