Servings: 10

 

Ingredients:

5 cups unsweetened cocoa powder

1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk (I used Eagle Brand)

2 cups heavy cream

1 cup half and half

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

5 cups chopped almonds

1 cup mini marshmallows

Equipment:

sauce pan

ice cream machine

kitchen timer

bowl

Cooking instruction summary:

First thing you want to do is in a medium size saucepan you want to slightly heat the sweetened condensed milk and the cocoa powder. You are not trying to cook it you are just heating it while you stir the cocoa together so that you get it all incorporated to a nice smooth chocolate sauce. Once it is incorporated pull it off the heat and set it aside to cool. Add in the half and half, vanilla extract and heavy cream and stir well (I just used a regular spoon.) Once it is all mixed together stick your saucepan in the freezer while you chop the nuts and prepare the ice cream maker. Chop the almonds. I did a rough chop and tried to chop them different ways so you get a different size bite each time. Once you have the nuts chopped and your marshmallows measured out get the ice cream maker bowl out of the freezer and put it in the ice cream maker. Set it up so it is ready to use. Take your chocolate mixture out of the freezer and pour it into the ice cream maker. Turn the ice cream maker on. Set your timer for 35 minutes. At the 35-minute mark add in your toppings and let it incorporate for another 5 minutes. Once this is done scoop it out of the ice cream maker and into your freezer containers. Mine was definitely firm enough to serve right then. It would have been a little firmer then soft serve. I stuck it in the freezer for 2 hours and then I had this ice cream cone!

Food Joke

The car crash Rabbi Bloom and Father Michael get into a car accident and it`s a bad one. Both cars are crushed but amazingly neither of the clerics is hurt. After they crawl out of their cars, Rabbi Bloom sees the priest`s collar and says, "Just look at our cars - there`s nothing left, but we`re unhurt. You`re a priest and I`m a rabbi so it must be a sign from God. He must have meant that we should meet and be friends and live together in peace the rest of our days." Father Michael replies, "I agree with you completely. This truly must be a sign from God." Rabbi Bloom then says, "Look - here`s another miracle. Although my car is wrecked, this bottle of wine didn`t break. God must want us to drink this wine and celebrate our good fortune." He hands the bottle to the priest. Father Michael takes a few big swigs and passes the bottle back to Rabbi Bloom who puts the cork back in and hands it back to the priest. Father Michael asks, "Aren`t you having any wine?" "No. I think I`ll just wait for the police," says Rabbi Bloom.
