How to make it

  • In a large bowl, use a hand blender to whisk egg yolks and sugar using until pale and thick.
  • Mix in vanilla.
  • In a saucepan, on medium heat, bring cream to boiling point, but do not let it boil.
  • Slowly pour hot cream over the egg yolk mixture and stir to combine (tempering).
  • Pour the whole mixture back into the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the cream thickens and coats the back of the spoon.
  • Mix in the chocolate and stir until fully melted and mixed in the custard.
  • Remove from heat and whisk in the cream cheese until completely melted and incorporated.
  • Cool custard completely and refrigerate until cold.
  • Process the custard according to your ice cream maker manufacturer’s instructions.

    Hey from Huntsville Alabama,
    I just made this and here is my feedback. First, milk is listed as an ingredient; however, the directions never make mention of the milk. I added it with the cream - I hope it works - I will let you know. Tasting: The chocolate totally overwhelms and the cream cheese can not hold its own, it is totally overpowered. Next time I will decrease the chocolate and increase the creams cheese.
    Have a great day!
