Chocolate Blueberry Ice Cream

RussellRussell Thomas

ingredients

  • 10 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 6 egg yolks
  • 6 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons premium-quality blueberry preserves

directions

  • 1

    Put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Bring the milk and cream just to a boil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan.

    Meanwhile, whisk the egg yolks and sugar together in a bowl until well-blended and slightly thickened. Still whisking, drizzle in about 1 cup hot milk mixture - this will warm the yolks so they won’t scramble. Pour the custard back into the remaining 1 cup milk mixture and cook over medium heat, stirring continuously, until the custard thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon. Immediately pour the custard through a fine-mesh sieve over the chocolate.

    Let the mixture sit one minute, then stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Chill thoroughly, then churn in an ice-cream maker, according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Five minutes before the ice cream is finished, stir in the preserves. Continue to churn until thickened. Freeze at least 2 hours before eating.
