  1. i need a good chocolate ice cream recipe for Boo's birthday on
    Sunday. it needs to make about 2 quarts to fill a bundt pan...
    the idea is it's supposed to look like a volcano, with the
    center filled with raspberry sauce lava. either a custard base
    or non-custard is ok, as long as it's good.
    i'm hoping chocolate goes ok with the carrot cake with cream
    cheese frosting dinosaur 🙂

    This is a copycat Ben and Jerry's recipe. I've made it numerous times and
    think it's very good. It can be multiplied for quantity, although I
    usually make the original amount. I tripled it once and the result was
    still just as good.

    2 oz Unsweetened chocolate
    1/3 c Unsweetened cocoa powder
    1 1/2 c Milk
    2 lg Eggs
    1 c Sugar
    1 c Heavy or whipping cream
    1 ts Vanilla

    The combination of cocoa powder and unsweetened chocolate creates an
    ice cream with a more complex testure.Jerry refers to this as
    "mouthfeel". Melt the unsweetened chocolate in the top of a double
    boiler over hot, not boiling water. Gradually whisk in the cocoa and
    heat, stirring constantly, until smooth. ( the chocolate may "seize"
    or clump together. Don't worry, the milk will dissovle it). Whisk in
    the milk, a little at a time, and heat until completely blended.
    remove from the heat and let cool. Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl
    until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes. Whisk in the sugar, a little at
    a time, then continue whisking until completely blended, about 1
    minute more. Pour in the cream and vanilla and whisk to blend. Pour
    the chocolate mixture into the cream mixture and blend. Cover and
    refrigerate until cold, about 1-3 hours, depending on your
    refrigerator. Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze
    according to manufacturer's instructions.

    This is a favorite...I have been known to add an oz or two more
    chocolate, just for funsies.

    The custard base is listed first, as it is the foundation for any
    number of varieties of ice cream. The adaptation for chocolate comes
    right below.

    "Custard Ice Cream Base"
    This base will keep for 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator in a
    tightly-covered jar. It is important that the jar be well sealed or
    the base will pick up flavors from other foods. If you prefer to use
    turbinado sugar, substitute it for the granulated in the recipe.

    1 cup whole milk
    3/4 cup sugar
    4 egg yolks
    3 cups heavy cream

    Heat the cream, milk and sugar in a heavy-bottomed saucepan, stirring
    occasionally until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is hot.
    Place the egg yolks in a bowl and whisk briefly. Still whisking,
    slowly pour in about 1 cup of the hot liquid. When the mixture is
    smooth, slowly pour it into the liquid in the saucepan, whisking
    constantly. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the
    mixture thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon, about 8
    minutes. Be sure not let the mixture boil at any time or will curdle.
    Strain into a clean bowl.

    3 ounces semisweet chocolate (bittersweet from Trader Joe's is good)
    1 ounce unsweetened chocolate
    1 recipe Custard Ice Cream Base, warm

    Melt the chocolate together in a saucepan over low heat, stirring
    occasionally until smooth (I zap it). Gradually add some of the ice
    cream base to the chocolate, whisking it frequently to keep the
    chocolate smooth. Add the remaining ice cream base and cook over low
    heat until the mixture is well blended. Cool thoroughly.

    Pour the mixture into the bowl of the machine and freeze.
    use as directed by your manufacturer.

    Makes 1 quart.

    Boron, this sounds better than the one I posted. I've got to make this
    soon! Have you ever made it with fresh peaches?

    You betcha! And with strawberries. And as chocolate almond. None of
    these to any recipe, I just added the goodies to the custard in the
    freezer.

    It is easy to make a coffee ice cream from the custard, too. The
    recipe book recommends instant espresso, but I brew superthick from
    ground French roast...no water...I steep 4 tbsp grounds in 1/2 cup of
    the custard mix BEFORE the eggs are added...strain the liquid into the
    pan and continue cooking the custard.

    There are also two recipes from the same collection that I got the
    chocolate one for, that require no custard base for the fruit ice
    cream. The peach one is strictly for winter. I'd never used canned
    fruit this time of year.

    I have an Il Gelataio ice cream maker and these recipes came with it.
    (search on eBay if you seek one)

    Strawberry Ice Cream

    2 pints strawberries, washed and hulled
    1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons superfine sugar
    3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    1 1/2 cups heavy cream

    Purée the strawberries in a food processor. Stir in the remaining
    ingredients.
    Pour the mixture into the bowl of the machine and freeze.
    Makes about 3 1/2 cups.

    Peach Ice Cream

    Two 16-oz. cans reaches packed in heavy syrup, drained, liquid
    discarded
    3/4 cup simple syrup
    3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    1 cup heavy cream

    Purée the peaches in a food processor. Add the syrup. lemon juice and
    cream.
    Pour the mixture into the bowl of the machine and freeze.
    Makes about 1 quart.

    Does this recipe come from a book or booklet?

    If I couldn't get fresh peaches, I'd probably use frozen. Somehow, canned
    peaches just don't sound all that good in such a good ice cream.

    Quite a coincidence... I bought an Il Gelataio machine around 1976 when
    they were first introduced in the US. IMO, it's the only way to go.
    Somewhere along the line, I lost the original recipe book that came with
    it. I also have a 6-qt White Mountain freezer, but I only haul it out
    (rarely) when I make ice cream for a crowd.

    Purée the strawberries in a food processor. Stir in the remaining

    Pour the mixture into the bowl of the machine and freeze.
    Makes about 3 1/2 cups.

    That sounds lucious, like a classic Philadelphia style ice cream.

    Peach Ice Cream

    Two 16-oz. cans reaches packed in heavy syrup, drained, liquid
    discarded
    3/4 cup simple syrup
    3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    1 cup heavy cream

    Purée the peaches in a food processor. Add the syrup. lemon juice and
    cream.
    Pour the mixture into the bowl of the machine and freeze.
    Makes about 1 quart.

    As you said, maybe for Winter.

    There was a recipe for Fresh Tangerine Sorbet in my recipe book which,
    fortunately, I copied for a friend and didn't lose. Perhaps it's in your
    book. It's one of the tastiest recipes I make, and everyone seems to love
    it.

    In case you don't have it...

    3-1/2 cups freshly squeezed tangerine juice
    3/4 cups simple syrup
    2 teaspoons grated tangerine zest
    1 tablespoons lemon juice
    1 egg white

    Refrigerate juice, tightly covered. Heat simple syrup to just below
    boiling. Pour over grated zest in a heatproof container. Cool to room
    temperature, then cover tightly. Store juice and syrup mixture separately
    in the refrigerator overnight. Next day, combine juice, syrup mixture, and
    lemon juice. Pour the mixture into the machine and begin freezing.
    Meanwhile, beat egg white until very loose and frothy, but before peaks
    form. When mixture in freezer is beginning to thicken, add egg white and
    continue freezing until finished.

    i need a good chocolate ice cream recipe for Boo's birthday on
    Sunday. it needs to make about 2 quarts to fill a bundt pan...
    the idea is it's supposed to look like a volcano, with the
    center filled with raspberry sauce lava. either a custard base
    or non-custard is ok, as long as it's good.
    i'm hoping chocolate goes ok with the carrot cake with cream
    cheese frosting dinosaur 🙂

    This is a favorite...I have been known to add an oz or two more
    chocolate, just for funsies.

    The custard base is listed first, as it is the foundation for any
    number of varieties of ice cream. The adaptation for chocolate comes
    right below.

    "Custard Ice Cream Base"
    This base will keep for 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator in a
    tightly-covered jar. It is important that the jar be well sealed or
    the base will pick up flavors from other foods. If you prefer to use
    turbinado sugar, substitute it for the granulated in the recipe.

    1 cup whole milk
    3/4 cup sugar
    4 egg yolks
    3 cups heavy cream

    Heat the cream, milk and sugar in a heavy-bottomed saucepan, stirring
    occasionally until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is hot.
    Place the egg yolks in a bowl and whisk briefly. Still whisking,
    slowly pour in about 1 cup of the hot liquid. When the mixture is
    smooth, slowly pour it into the liquid in the saucepan, whisking
    constantly. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the
    mixture thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon, about 8
    minutes. Be sure not let the mixture boil at any time or will curdle.
    Strain into a clean bowl.

    3 ounces semisweet chocolate (bittersweet from Trader Joe's is good)
    1 ounce unsweetened chocolate
    1 recipe Custard Ice Cream Base, warm

    Melt the chocolate together in a saucepan over low heat, stirring
    occasionally until smooth (I zap it). Gradually add some of the ice
    cream base to the chocolate, whisking it frequently to keep the
    chocolate smooth. Add the remaining ice cream base and cook over low
    heat until the mixture is well blended. Cool thoroughly.

    Pour the mixture into the bowl of the machine and freeze.
    use as directed by your manufacturer.

    Makes 1 quart.

    It came from a booklet that I got with my ice cream maker, but I also
    found it duplicated on a web page a couple of years ago. The web page
    made no mention of my ice cream maker.

    I have an Il Gelataio ice cream maker and these recipes came with it.
    (search on eBay if you seek one)

    Quite a coincidence... I bought an Il Gelataio machine around 1976 when
    they were first introduced in the US. IMO, it's the only way to go.
    Somewhere along the line, I lost the original recipe book that came with
    it. I also have a 6-qt White Mountain freezer, but I only haul it out
    (rarely) when I make ice cream for a crowd.

    I think the White Mountain is the king of the ice & salt machines, but
    that Gelataio is one humdinger and in a whole 'nother category.

    I posted a link to an online source for the recipes that came with my
    machine in another post, but attach it here, too.

    The brown sugar pecan recipe there is one I have also adapted to being
    one that leaves out the pecans, but put them back in from adding 1 to
    1-1/2 cups broken up Poppycock-"Just the Nuts" candy. That's a doozie,
    too.

    There was a recipe for Fresh Tangerine Sorbet in my recipe book which,
    fortunately, I copied for a friend and didn't lose. Perhaps it's in your
    book. It's one of the tastiest recipes I make, and everyone seems to love
    it.

    In case you don't have it...

    3-1/2 cups freshly squeezed tangerine juice
    3/4 cups simple syrup
    2 teaspoons grated tangerine zest
    1 tablespoons lemon juice
    1 egg white

    Refrigerate juice, tightly covered. Heat simple syrup to just below
    boiling. Pour over grated zest in a heatproof container. Cool to room
    temperature, then cover tightly. Store juice and syrup mixture separately
    in the refrigerator overnight. Next day, combine juice, syrup mixture, and
    lemon juice. Pour the mixture into the machine and begin freezing.
    Meanwhile, beat egg white until very loose and frothy, but before peaks
    form. When mixture in freezer is beginning to thicken, add egg white and
    continue freezing until finished.

    Terrific. This is copied and saved.

    Here is the url for several ice cream makers' booklets, including the Il
    Gelataio Jr.
    http://www.makeicecream.com/icecreammaki.html

    Boron, I was looking at the instruction booklet of the Simac Il Gelataio
    Junior Ice Cream Maker.
    Does your ice cream maker when it is finished churning necessitate putting
    it in a container which will go in the freezer for further solidification or
    is it firm enough to enjoy right out of the machine. I've heard that all
    ice cream maker machines need this further time in the freezer. (P.S. Don't
    like drippy, melty ice cream. Don't mind it soft, tho.)
