So I recently stole my parents ice cream maker (with their permission) and have been determined to find the right recipe. THIS one is for sure a keeper. I've modified it a bit so it will fit my maker. It makes about a half gallon, which just isn't enough for any growing family. I guess I need to two ice cream makers.
10 egg yolks
4 Tbs sugar
3 1/2 cups milk
1 cup milk chocolate cut into small squares
1/2 cup dark chocolate cut into small squares
2 cups heavy cream whipped

Mix the eggs and sugar together in a large bowl. Set aside.
Scald the milk. Turn off the stove. And slooooooowly pour the the milk into the egg mixture 1 Tbs at a time at first. Whisk it quickly so you don't get scrambled eggs. Once it is all blended. Return the mixture into the pot and turn the heat back on to med-med low. Continue stirring constantly reaaaaally good for about 5-10 minutes until the custard thickens but does NOT become scrambled eggs.
Once it is nice and thick pour it back into the large bowl and add the chopped chocolate. It melts fast. Let the mixture get REALLY cold in the fridge. About an hour or two. Then add the whipped cream and blend in gently. Pour it in your mixture and wait ... if you can ... or steal a lick or two as it starts to thicken.
