Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chocolate eclair crumbles (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup butter

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl

Method
 

  1. Start by heating the milk and half of the sugar in a saucepan over medium heat until warm but not boiling.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining sugar, cocoa powder, and heavy cream.
  3. Slowly pour the warm milk into the cream mixture while whisking continuously.
  4. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and let it cool to room temperature.
  5. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least two hours.
  6. Pour the chilled mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  7. During the last five minutes of churning, sprinkle in the chocolate eclair crumbles.
  8. In a small saucepan, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and butter over low heat.
  9. Drizzle the melted chocolate glaze over the churned ice cream before transferring it to a freezer-safe container.
  10. Store in an airtight container to prevent freezer burn, best enjoyed within two weeks.

Notes

For a dairy-free version, substitute almond milk for whole milk. Use dark chocolate chips for a richer taste. Don’t skip the chilling step, as it’s crucial for achieving a creamy texture. To enhance the chocolate flavor, consider adding a splash of coffee extract. Store in an airtight container to prevent freezer burn, best enjoyed within two weeks.
