Spiced chocolate ice cream recipe
This is a rich choc ice cream flavoured with oranges and cinnamon. The trick to the deep flavour is to use a bar each of orange milk chocolate and dark chocolate. Plus cream, of course.
Ingredients
- 275 ml milk
- 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
- 3 large egg yolks
- 50 g unrefined organic caster sugar
- 100 g orange milk chocolate
- 100 g 70% dark chocolate
- 200 ml double cream, well-chilled

Step-by-step
- Put the milk and cinnamon in to a medium-sized pan, heat gently until almost boiling and stir well. Remove the pan from the heat and leave to cool for a couple of minutes.
- Meanwhile, put the egg yolks and sugar into a heatproof bowl and mix well with a wooden spoon. Pour on the hot milk and mix thoroughly. Tip the milk mixture back into the saucepan. Heat gently, stirring constantly over fairly low heat until the mixture thickens - do not let the mixture boil or it will curdle. Remove the pan from the heat.
- Break up the chocolate bars and put into a large heatproof bowl. Pour over the hot custard and stir gently until smooth. Leave to cool then cover and chill.
- Whip the cream until it forms soft peaks then fold in the cold chocolate custard. Pour into an ice-cream maker and churn until frozen, or freeze the mixture in a freezer container, stirring occasionally until firm.
