Homemade Chocolate Ice Cream..

I found a awesome price on a ice cream maker this weekend. So of course we made ice cream..

It was really yummy..

1 1/2 cups whole milk

1/3 cups sugar

dash salt

2 oz. semisweet chocolate squares finely chopped

1 egg beaten

1/2 cup half and half

1/3 cup whipping cream

1/2 teas.vanilla

Combine the milk, sugar, salt and chocolate in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until chocolate is melted and the mixture is almost boiling. Slowly stir in 1 cup of the hot mixture with the beaten egg and stir until all is combine. Add back to saucepan. Cook and stir over low heat until slightly slick. 2 minutes is a good time. Stir in the half and half, whipping cream and vanilla. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours. Pour into the canister of the ice cream maker and our machine said to run for 20 to 40 minutes. But they vary and you need to go by you machines directions.  Enjoy, this is great for hot days.
